Only you will be mining more coins, which is making more profit.

Huh

Yeah, how may I help you ?

A nod is not mining any coins. A node is just a bitcoin wallet that has a full copy of the blockchain.

The smiley is basically say: "WTF is he/she even talking about?"

I'm talking about, if 3 computers are mining for a coin, it will make more profit than 1.

I'm not talking about node here.

I have 3 computers on my home network that my family uses. I run the Bitcoin core program on my computer only as I want to support the Bitcoin network. Is there an advantage for the Bitcoin network for me to run the bitcoin core program on all 3 computers on my home network or is just one program running per internet connection sufficient? I'm a big believer in Bitcoin and if there is an advantage to the network for me to have 3 nodes in my house, I will. Thanks.
If you want to help the network, have one node and make it accept incoming connections via ipv4, ipv6, and Tor.

You need to have external IP for each of the 3 computers, having them sharing the same connection will not help.

From my personal experience 1 machine running is the best you can do, unless you have several external IPs. The reason is that you can only forward the external port to 1 machine. And the machines will not use their internal IP addresses but the external ones. Thus you cant even reliably speed up the distribution off the blockchain in your own network. This is -the way I understand it- because no node gets a priority over the others.

tl;dr: if you have 3 external IPs yes.
