Yes there are others out there. I did a google search and came up with
"Actiontec Dual PC Modem." It has a 56Kbps V.92 Modem with 2 Ethernet
ports. After I found one I stopped looking, so there may be more or
better ones out there.

P.S. - there are tons of routers with DSL Modems.

Dr. Tom,
I've never hear of a company other than Apple that combines a wireless/wired
router
with a built in modem.

Subject: Re: Older iMac G5 with modem on the fritz.
I believe the most cost effective option to be an Airport Extreme
basestation
off of ebay for $60.00 shipped. Use the basestation to dial up earthlink
and
then connect it to the iMac by ethernet.
That looks like a smart solution to me. It doesn't even have to be an
Airport. Other brands, if they have an Ethernet connection, will do the
job.
I would not play around with USB. Ethernet is a more standard and
flexible way to do this. With Ethernet you will even be able to add
another computer without any trouble.
