You should read up on *Nix networking.

What I had at home was
   two NICs in a firewall/router box (WITH ALMOST NOTHING ON IT)
   cable modem to one NIC
   other NIC to a cheap switch
   several computers connected to switch

Set NAT and masquerading on the firewall/router

Another route, which I'm probably going to do now, is buy a cheap router,
with a few ethernet ports and wireless (for company with laptop), and
broadband to router, computers to router.
