Buy a "router" to connect to the DSL modem. then connect your PC's to the router. Most routers will accept 4 or 5 Ethernet cables. You will not need "internet sharing" at all since the router will assign local IP addresses to each computer and route tghe internet traffic to the correct computer. You can also use one of more "switches" in the network to expand the number of Ethernet ports. Good Luck
