the correct procedure is do it all through the router lan access ports , of which there are usually 4 , and add lan switches if you need more than 4 ethernet ports
You missed a chance to advertise the Vonet WiFi bridge from the boards sponsor. I liberated one from my employer (with permission) that we had been using when a nice man with a JCB dug up our cables. I must say they work very well. For those that don't know they can turn any device equipped with an RJ45 (ethernet) port into a WiFi enable device - especially useful for situations mentioned in post 10.
