You need to purchase a router. About $40-60 at Best Buy, Walmart, etc. Run the cable that comes out of your DSL modem into the uplink port on the router. Run cables from the router to the PCs. Run the install CD that comes with the router on one of the PCs to set the router up. Finally go into the control panel and the other computers and run the Network Wizard to add them to your new network.

Hi,
In order to put them all "on line" you'll have to get a "network switch" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_switch), it's a kind of box with holes where you'll have to put a "Network Cable" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_5_cable) between those PCs and the Network Switch using the crossover configuration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_crossover_cable) and then you'll have to confitgure your network (switch, and PCs) to support DHCP (http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/ClientConfig.html)
I hope this will be helpful
Good Luck
