You could potentially get a separate uplink for each device, but this typically costs more, and is not the most effective method of getting all your equipment connected. There is a better way – you colocate a small hub or switch along with your equipment, and use it to interconnect all your machines in a mini-network. Then you connect that to your uplink. In this way, all your machines share one pool of bandwidth, which gives you the best pricing.
