My plan too, but at the moment I have no hub or router in the network; just
the DSL modem connected to the Ethernet port on the Airport; everything else
is wireless. I plan to insert the Linksys Router between the modem and the
Airport, cable the iMac to the router, and reconfigure the Airport as a
bridge, allowing the Linksys router to handle the PPPoE protocol Earthlink
uses. My usage on the iMac at the moment is about 1 hour per week, so I'm in
no hurry to reconfigure things.
