Hey guys so recently I needed to add more ethernet ports to my router since it only supports ONE cable which is pretty bullshit if you ask me, but hey it's a free one from the cable company so who am I to complain.
Anyways, I bought a splitter, which actually didn't work and after some research I found out an old post here that gives an answer that a splitter won't actually work for a router, but instead a switch will.
Now here's my question:
Will my router support a switch? Or do I need to buy a new router?
Here are pics of my router
(Model name is Cisco DPC2320)

Thank you everyone for helping!
