Yes, I have a similar setup and working no problem with additional 8 port switch attached. When you get everything connected, you can use a program like PS3 Media Server to stream movies, music and web video/radio from your PC to the PS3 or copy files to the local drive without the need to buy external HDD.

I've actually got 2- 8 port switches, and one 4 port in my setup, and everything works fine...

Thanks for the info
I have heard that ATT may supply a larger switch if needed
Does anybody have experience with this?

It would probably be cheaper to go to Best Buy.

how much more than 2-8 port switches could you possibly need?

AT&T gave me an 8 port switch and I already had a 4 port switch so I'm good to go.
