just tie all the PCs together with the blink modem.

the blink modem will take over addressing IPs and working out the rest.

IP has to be set to auto

if you want to share files between them just run they network setup and enable file sharing and leave the rest on default

do note that bandwidth will be shared and multiple browsers will notice a slower experience

one last thing the modem has to be using the enthernet, why ppl use the usb with a network card avaliable is beyond me
