various Network Hubs and Switches starting at $5
All with their ac adapters no network cables with them.
All work fine
I do have new network cables you can buy separately.
for understanding - a switch is faster than a hub
Sometimes you would need a crossover cable to connect a switch or hub to your router. I have those starting at $2
Switches or Hubs are what you would use if you used all the ports on your router. Some people call them network connection splitters
