I'm starting to hook up a network with my FreeBSD system, and need to get a small 8 port hub. I already have a few computers connected on a ThinNet network, so I'm looking at getting a hub with a BNC connector, and possibly an AUI port just in case. Is there any difference between the (many) brands of hubs, or should I just go for the cheapest one I can find? I'm thinking that 8 port 10Mb hubs are hopefully standardized enough now that there isn't a major difference... Also, can anybody recommend a good mail order shop (or tell me which ones to stay away from ;) ?
