What's the problem? I guess we're missing the point of your problem. Couldn't you simply connect the phone line to the DSL modem, the modem to the router, the router to the switch, and all four computers to the switch? This would eliminate any networking problems you have since DHCP would be taking care of everything.
Is there a physical problem? Like cable running or something?
