You will also need to set up each client with the router ip address and the
dns ip's of your ISP btw.

I use a Netgear ISDN router RT328, has been working well for 6 months.
Thats
the model without a hub, I cant remember the model number of the router
with
a hub. ( it is probably RT348)

Netgear also do a 56k router for those without isdn.
