From the information I have found, it seems that you need an external DSL modem , with two NICS installed in the Server machine to share connections. Is this so, or can you use an internal DSL modem for sharing as well.
One thing to remember is to have a static IP address from you ISP.
Depending on the type of service you are getting, you might be getting a
DHCP address.
If you do get a static IP from your ISP, then whatever modem doen't really
matter.

You can get router/hubs from the store now with even dhcp services in them
which will get you many PC's or whatever behind that DSL modem.
