Chris,

Buy or get a 4 or 8 port switch. (If you have a Freecycle group near you, you can probably get a 100MB one free). Then just use it like a splicer. Plug the ethernet cord from the router into the switch, and then out from the switch into the PCs. Should be nothing more too it.

"The heart is the main thing in true religion...It is the hinge and turning-point in the condition of man's soul. If the heart is alive to God and quickened by the Spirit, the man is a living Christian. If the heart is dead and has not the Spirit, the man is dead before God." (J.C. Ryle)
