>>But _how_ is the bandwidth shared? Isn't it just a single-session modem with multiple Ethernet connections to multiple computers?

>>The bundling may be significant in terms of consumer marketing (ease of use), but technologically, it's just a small (and probably passive?) Ethernet hub, right?<<

It has to be an ethernet hub. The ATU-R has only one ethernet port, e.g. one rj-45 connection. That goes to a hub, with the hub repeating the signals and out to the ATU-R in bridge mode. The WSTL ATU-R would see a packet with an address for a different destination than on the local port and then foward it out the wan interface. All imho, of course.
