Hey guys, i'm trying to hold a lan party and i'm wodnering if there are any guides out there or any listings u can give me that i need for a lan party situated at my house.

I'm wondering most about the cabling (what type i need ) for hub connecting. Peer to peer networking?
Aren't there two types of cabling? for UTP? depending on how u connect the computers?/ hubs?
