Please help. I'm setting up a small network with shared
DSL access. I have the DSL modem connected to the
Network switch and the 3 computers (all running XP)
connected to the same switch. I can see the network, but
I would like to have any of the 3 computers able to sign
onto DSL and the other 2 computers able to just use the
connection no matter which computer sighs on. As it is
now, only one computer can sign on and must remain on for
the others to have access.

If you replace the switch with a router, then all PCs will be
able to concurrently use the 'net, and they will all be able
to share files & printers.
