I sure hope you have a switch and not a hub and are just referring to it as a hub. While hubs do work they are not very efficient, you will get constant network congestion, especially while playing games due to the amount of data being sent at one given time.

You can connect another switch to your existing network using a uplink port or if it doesn't have an uplink port you can use a crossover cable. There are very few routers out there with more then 6 LAN ports, I would recommend if your looking for more ports to get a switch and do what I mentioned above.
