You connect two or more computers with a switch. You will need a device to act as a DHCP server and probably a DNS server. If that all sounds over your head, you should probably call someone.

A home router will function as both DHCP and DNS server, and would set up the lan connection for you.

Is there a program that can make a LAN connection through the internet?

The type of network your asking about is called a VPN (Virtual Private Network) or a VLAN (Virtual LAN). A VLAN acts like an ordinary LAN, but connected devices don't have to be physically connected to the same segment. LogMeIn Hamachi lets you setup a virtual LAN connection on both PCs and Macs through the internet. The software is free for non-commercial use, never expires, and will let you set up your virtual LAN connection in less then 10 minutes.

How make lan?

It depends under which context you intend to create a Lan connection. If you want to have a "Lan party" where you and a bunch of friend all play the same game, then there is no definite answer. You will have to Google "Lan connection <insert game name>". If you are talking about Lan in just a general, networking, like connecting to internet sense, then you need a router and an Ethernet cable. You then connect the Ethernet cable to the router and then to your computer. Or you can set up a Wi-Fi connection with your router. Your question is far too vague, so I cannot give a more straightforward answer. If you would like, you can contact me directly at JasonTheSager@live.com

Does LAN connection need a telephone line?

no need of telephone line for LAN networking. for LAN we ethernet card and other networking devices like hub, switch. for internet connection u need telephone line A Lan is a shared network of multiple systems. You can have a LAN which does not have Internet access and only supports Print/File Sharing. You need one router to assign IP addresses using DHCP and if more connection are required, just add switches. To give the LAN Internet access, you need an ISP connection and a modem. The existing router then connects to the modem. The ISP connection (today 2008) can be DSL, FiOS (over a phone line) or Cable. A dial-up connection can be shared on a LAN, but today that is a very poor choice and would not be connected as described above.
