  1. If they are 'networked' then the DSL line will pass the ip assingment to the router – the router will appear as the main IP address but keep in mind that while they all may 'appear' on a surface level as one IP address they'll all have individual MAC address that will be used to trace things back to, Kinda of like all having the same last name but individual social security numbers…

    No. They will all show the same IP as either the machine or router connecting to the DSL.

    Individual packages sent across the line will contain the addressing info that identifies each machine.

  3. no, all computers must have their own, unique IP address/number, just like you and your neighbor have a different address. how are the computers connected? through a switch, hub, or router?

  4. AOL will see the DSL Routers ip address. Natting is done by the router. So your local ip is not seen by anybody outside of your network.
