You probably want to use a firewall appliance to feed that switch from your internet connection, NOT just a router.

Is the option I use now - it replaced an old K6-based LINUX machine (which I still have as a backup).
This unit is both a firewall *AND* an 8-port switch in one box with some management options I mostly don't need.

This is the switch I purchased: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003CFATU6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_10?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
I was thinking I would connect the machines to the switch and be good to go. Can you suggest a router to go along with this setup?
Keep in mind the switch will connect to the modem which has a built in router.
Do you think that's good enough?
I would love to hear your opinion.

That's all I needed thanks!
You talk about a switch, but you don't mention a router. You need a router to accomplish what you want unless the switch has DHCP capabilities.
That's all I needed thanks!
Quick question for the community. I have 40 ASICS I'm wiring up as we speak. I'm searching ISP options. I'm using a TP link 48 port switch.
My question: Can a standard residential ISP be used for this? They say I can have up to 13 IPs (pay extra), but when I go to hipster coffee shops I see 30+ people all on the same wifi. I know all the connected devices are sharing one IP address.
So second question: Can the miners all go through one IP or do I need an individual IP for each miner connected to the 48 port switch?
There are commercial ISP plans available, but they are rather expensive.
I would like to be sure on this before I agree to a yearly contract.
Feedback appreciated, thanks peeps!

You need to understand how DHCP works. Your router can feed dozens of DHCP addresses 192.168.1.? to your miners. You don't need a multitude of public-facing IP addresses. One will suffice.
