Hi my name is Ichigo. You need to use a router to give the switch/hub a Internet. You canot directly connect the dsl modem to the switch/hub. DSL run onl in the router okey!!! I hope I with you problem.

Most DSL and Cable modems will only allow you to have 1 IP address. This means that you can only have one computer or device attached to it. When you hook a router up to your modem, it uses that 1 address, and then assigns private addresses to the computers that you plug into it. If you can't get a router, you can put 2 network cards in one of the computers, and set that computer up to share the network connection. That computer then becomes the router. A switch or a hub can be used with a router if you need more ports to connect computers to.

1st network your computers together.. (XP has a great Wizard in Control Panel). 2nd, pick one computer to directly connect to the DSL modem (this will be designated as the ICS - see Wizard). Then run Wizard on the other computer(s) (upto 10). To speedup .. see this link http://www.astahost.com/info.php/Speed-Connection-Windows-Xp­_t3099.html
