You can use a home router, such as the Linksys BFSR11 if you already have a
home network and want to share a DSL network connection using only one IP
address. The router has a DHCP server in it that assigns each PC in your
network an IP address that is invisible to your ISP. The only IP the ISP
sees is the one for your router.
