The way I see this to be done is:

Computers: V W X Y Z
Switch: S

V holds the dial up connection.

V must ALWAYS be on for W X Y Z to work

V W X Y Z have NIC cards

V's NIC connects via Ethernet to S's WAN port (if applicable).

W X Y Z connect via Ethernet to S's LAN ports.

W X Y Z all share V's capabilities and all can be contact eachother.

S must have an internal NAT for this to work. If you can't find a switch w/ a NAT, get a router. and replace Switch S, with Router S.


If this doesn't make sense, I'll rewrite it better later.
