Depends what you mean losing speed. Each port of the router can do 100m up and 100m down (if its gig then its 1000m). So the total router capacity is 800m. If you are only using 1 port you have 600m left.

Now if you mean does is slow down your internet surfing...of course you are now sharing that connection
