In the following example I am using the existing LAN interface on the P1730 (which includes a console port) and an ISDN WAN module in slot 1 position. There are no modules in the slot 2 position. The ISDN WAN module in slot 1 will be used for backup recovery in case the PPPoE DSL connection goes down.

Notes:
Connect the DSL modem's LAN port to the ethernet HUB. Note: DSL modems have a crossover (mdi-x) LAN port. Make sure to use a crossover LAN cable to connect to the HUB's mdi port, or use a straight through LAN cable and connect it to the HUB's mdi-x port.
Connect the P-Series router's mdi LAN port to the HUB's mdi port using a straight
through LAN cable.
Connect all PC Clients to the HUB's mdi ports using a straight through LAN cable.
Note: For all PC Clients, configure the gateway IP address. The gateway address will be
the P-Series router LAN IP address or you can the DHCP Server feature in the P-Series
router in order to assign dynamic IP addresses to your PC Clients.
For the ISDN WAN module in slot 1, connect your ISDN line.
