I have a house with three units but I only have one DSL connection available. What would be the smartest and cheapest solution to having three independent networks that all unify at the DSL connection/main router? I have a little networking experience but am willing to read up on things that need to be known. I also have a eve-ng server set up for simulating as I don’t want to buy hardware before knowing how to solve it.

What router do I need for this?

    Alright, thank you. Is the mikrotik hex one of the actual routers? Have you tried connecting dsl to an ethernet router before? I have read somewhere that you can get dsl to SFP modems pretty cheap, do those work?

      Yes, though it might be a bit underpowered. I’d look also at their RouterBoard line. I haven’t used DSL in a long time, but it should he possible.

      Man, sorry I don’t know why Lemmy doesn’t show me reply notifications consistently.
