I've wired up my house in cat5e, they all terminate in my garage where I currently have:

14points to various places in the house
virgin superhub 3(router mode but wifi turned off)
2 poe ip cameras

at the moment the ones that are connected go into a 8port(4 are poe) switch

The virgin wifi was very slow so I'm using an old bt home hub as a wap+switch in the attic

Do I need a 24port switch with POE? Can I just add more (much cheaper) 8 port switches

Should the homehub/extra switches go into the virgin router or one of the switches?

Thanks
