This is where Network Address Translation (NAT) steps in. NAT is a way of connecting multiple computers in a private LAN to the internet when you have a smaller number of public IP addresses available to you. Typically you are given 1 IP by your ISP, but you want to let your whole house connect to the internet. NAT is the magic that makes this possible. For more information about NAT, you can always visit Wikipedia.
