Thanks for all your answers everyone.

The short answer is "no" unless you do not require WiFi capability (the SE2500 does not support WiFi). To further answer your question, there is a nice write up on the difference between a router and a switch:http://compnetworking.about.com/od/homenetworkhardware/f/routervsswitch.htmBasically, a router (nore expensive than a switch) has the capability to allow the network administrator more flexibility in configuring the local network (there are all sorts of reasons for wanting specific configurations).

Is this a managed switch? Can it assign IPs etc?

No, this is a simple switch. It does not have DHCP capabilities or any advanced routing.

Can this be connected directly to one modem, and then two of the empty ports connect to two separate routers? Or will there be an IP conflict?

Most modems (Cable, ADSL) will support 1 router connection. The router or firewall needs to connect first to the modem, then the switch can follow the router and provide connections to the LAN users. Some routers allow for more than 1 subnet. 2 subnets are required if a 2nd router is connected. If only more LAN ports are required, then switches can be cascaded or a second router with NAT disabled. Check books or guidance on networking to understand how this works more completely.

Does the switch pass POE?

Hi Vince. This is an Ethernet switch and doesn't have POE capability.
