You have to map the netwrok drives in each pc. Double click my computer click view and check toolbar and the option will be there. Also go to network neighborhood and add the "Client for Microsoft Networks" make sure it is bound the your network NIC and that the nic is bound to a protocol (TCP/IP will work), and the network. And also enable file sharing. ( not the dsl network) Also you will have to assign an ip and subnet mask to each pc's nic card by editing the tcp/ip protocol . Use the ip's 10.0.0.41 10.0.0.42 10.0.0.43 and 10.0.0.44, the subnet should be the same and should be 255.255.255.0 Also go to www.analogx.com and download a program called Proxy and install it in the on-line (dsl ) machine. It's free and comes with instructions, that tell you how to assign the ip and port in the IE LAN control panel. If the on-line machine is 10.0.0.44 they all have to know how to look for it.
