Modems in almost all new computers are software based and use your processor for much of their work.. They are also horribly unreliable from my experience.\n\nIf you have two computers, and internet, it's time to move to DSL.  If you don't believe me, check out the promotion  http://promo.yahoo.com/att/?refer=dsl0  for only $12.99, how do you beat that.

Yes plug the router to a switch and plug the computer to the switch, plug the wireless router to the dsl router and there you go.

Via your modem if it supports voice (voice modem).\n\nDownload software - there are lots of freeware/shareware. Google --> "phone software -voip".\n\nIt will be easier to use minus before voip since there are too much voip that will cover away your real software.\n\n\nHardware: Connect phone line to your voice modem, voice modem to pc.

No.  Typically, your DSL connection terminates on a line card in the telephone company central office and would be considered a point-to-point link.  Only your traffic would appear on your line, hence no switching.

Anything is possible but your DSL modem will almost always have a second jack for your phone..use it to avoid any issues.

You will need:\n\n1) modem that came with your dsl, \n2) a wireless router and \n3) wireless cards for each computer. \n4) CAT-5 (Ethernet) Cables for all computers that don't have wireless cards \n\nInstall the modem as directed by your ISP.  Attach your wireless router to your modem.  You will need to attach all computers that don't have wireless cards directly to the router with CAT-5 (Ethernet) cables.   The rest will depend on what operating systems your computers are using. The link in the other response will work for Windows.  If you have  a mac, click on the apple, then preferences, then find your wireless network and follow the instructions from there.

Dial up is the devil. You cannot have two computers running off the same line in dial up, because once one connects to the internet, the phone line is being used and cannot be connected to by another phone line user.

u can use a dsl spiltter which is normally avaiable in DIY store. It basically spilt the phone line into two wave where u go use your dsl as well as your phone at the same time. But take note that the moment u use the phone, ur speed of DSL will reduce by a third of it normal speed!

yes you can use a ethernet wire to connect the two computers, and then run the windows application to make one run from another.

if they both have an ethernet port (this looks like an oversized phone line) then you can connect them together with a special ethernet cable called a cross over cable. this can be obtained at your local computer store, or maybe bestbuy. this is a fast way, it can also be done by a direct firewire link, or an oldfashioned serial link(very slow) or through a network switch/hub/router. this also uses a regular ethernet cable, and any of the hardware mentioned above.

Yes: broadband and DSL are pretty much the same thing and will allow you use of your phone AND PC internet access at the same time.  In fact, I'm my home speakerphone now as I write this.

Yes, it is possilble to use two or more routers with one DSL line. All you have to do is change each routers' default IP address to something that wouldn't conflit with the DSL modem. For example, if your DSL modem has 192.168.1.1, change the routers' IPs to 192.168.2.1, 192.168.3.1, etc.

you could get someone elses service if they had a wireless internet connection and keep it unlocked and if you have a wifi adapter. That is the only legal way that I can think of.

Get a connection from some if the ISP's that the previous asnwerer has told you. \nIf you need to know how its done, google for DHCP.
