So my problem here is that my gaming room is in the basement and i need 4 ethernet cables for my setups.

Router goes into a 5 port switch. Then( from the switch) i have two cables going through my walls to reach my basement.

I was wondering if i put another switch in my basement from one of the cables so i can have 4 new ports available in my basement.

So theres will be a switch connected to the router then another switch connected to the switch that will go in my Pcs and playstation Is that possible or it will not work?
