  1. you can install a 2nd network card on the computer attached to the dsl

    set up internet connection sharing

    you have to set up which computer is the input which is the output

    you will have to get a special ethernet cable called a crossover cable

      crossover cables are not the same as regular ethernet cable that you may buy at a dollar store.  A  regular ethernet cable will not work

      in most cases the easiest way to do this is to buy a router on sale

    at a big box store. The wireless routers are usually the one on sale

    Just turn off the wireless function to make it a cable ehternet wire only router

  2. I have never heard of a "line card" but from your description I believe that you mean an Ethernet card.

    What you should do is get a router and connect this way

    Internet > DSL Modem >> Router Wan Port

    Router LAN Port #1 >> Computer #1 Ethernet Card

    Router LAN Port #2 >> Computer #2 Ethernet Card

    Wired routers cost about $40 at Office Depot. It's a much better solution than trying to share the Internet through a computer
