ITI-DNA A211-I has 4 Ethernet ports so you can directly connect 4 computers from the router, no need of using any switch, just run another RJ45 Ethernet cable from the routers 2nd Ethernet port to your friends computer.

will the same bandwith be shared i.e. 30/2=15 kbps or will the bandwidth be equally shared please

ya the bandwidth will be shared between you and your friend equally.

I also need a good messenger(dedicaye to LAn only plz) other than outlook messenger either a cracked one or freeware but no trials plz.

InterChat
LAN messenger and chat

make sure that u are connecting using PPPoE mode and not Bridge mode
