Cisco Router Question

Hey. Sorry for all the questions I have been asking lately. Anyway, as suggested for my home lab I've been looking on ebay for routers and switches. I've seen a few items I like such as a Cisco 2501 and Cisco 2611-XM router. Anyway, what I was wondering is on these particular auctions I was looking at it doesn't say it comes with a transceiver. The 2501 routers and others as well I looked at on certificationkits all say they come with a transceiver. I've used networking equipment many times but mostly in remote scenarios. I have never directly handled a Cisco router before so I just needed to know what accessories I would need. I just plan on hooking the router to my labtop or desktop and doing some labs from there. How would I connect two or more routers with only one RJ-45 slot? Once again I apologize for the stupid question I read about AUI transceivers on cisco's website but I didn't get the answers I was looking for. Thanks again. icon_cheers.gif


Edit: I did some more reading I guess I will get a router with a built in transceiver. If I order one on ebay and it doesn't come with one I'm going to have to turn around and order one. It may be more expensive but I suppose it will be worth it.
