Underlying question: What should I be reading?

I wish a blackbox which:

1. Connects 4 local machines via Ethernet [WiFi shall *NOT* be 
considered]
     A. A desktop with WinXP and multiple versions of Debian
     B. A laptop with WinXP Pro SP3 whose reason for existence is 
running SeaMonkey.
        Historically it is/was my primary machine. Its future is 
as a portable.
     C. A laptop dedicated to Linux experiments. I have erased 
the HDD as many as
        ten times in one week ;/
     D. Misc temporarily connected laptops.
2. It shall provide multiple USB ports in order that a selection 
of flash dives
     and a 1 TB HDD can be accessed by any machine.
3. It *SHALL* connect to the internet via a T-Mobile 4G Hotspot 
Z915 connected
     via USB. The WiFi features have been disabled. I really 
wanted a USB cell network
     modem. The local T-Mobile outlet was only vendor that didn't 
try assaulting me with
     their 'smartphone-du-jour' with an atrociously large data 
plan. this connection
     shall be protected by a firewall.

How broke will I be?
TIA
