Detailed explanation-1: -USB hubs enable you to attach multiple devices, such as printers, hard drives and card readers, to a single computer. However, the USB hub only makes the devices available to one computer at a time. You need to disconnect the hub from one computer and attach it to another to share a printer with more than one computer.
Detailed explanation-2: -First connect each computer to the hub using utp cables. Take a lan cable and connect it to the PC’s lan port and connect the other end of the cable to the Hub lan port. Connect all the computers using the same method. Now power on the computers and assign ip addresses to the computers.
