I am connecting three seperate networks together to share the internet. I have a DSL line that I am goig to put a Linksys DSL router on. I do not want the computers on the seperate networks to see one antother. I just want them to share the internet connection.

Questions

1. Is this hard to do?
2. Would they see each other through the router?
3. If so how can I stop them from seeing each other?
4. Some of the networked computers share IP addresses (they were all seperate networks before. Can I leave the IP addresses or do I have to give them all unique IP?
5. The router can act as a DHCP server should I let it assign IP or can I assign them manually?
6. Since they are on three seperate networks would this be hard to setup or even possible?
7. Is there a benefit to either way?

Sorry for the amount of questions.
