First off this newsgroup is only for the Microsoft networking hardware.
(The hardware Microsoft makes does not support AOL as AOL refuses to
follow the standard TCP/IP connection & the perfectly good 32-bit TCP/IP
stack that Windows uses.)

Second off unless you pay AOL extra money you cannot connect multiple
computers at the same time to AOL.

My suggestion is get a real ISP. Then do some research on what hardware
is available to share a real internet connection.
