Router Is Filled
Hopefully someone can help me out and give me some options. I have a dlink wbr1310 wireless router with 4 ports on it. I currently use 1 wireless laptop, 2 wired desktops, 1 wired print server and 1 wired voip for my alarm system. I am about to buy a network hard drive for all the computer to share but as you can see all 4 wired ports are full. Does anyone have any reccomendations or soloutions that will help me out.

Or as second choice, if you have a wireless adapter laying around, you could make one of the desktops wireless, freeing up a port on the switch.
Note, I would buy an extra switch before making one of the desktops wireless.
