One bit of advice, if it says USB, run as fast as you can to something else. If it has USB *AND* Ethernet, that is okay. USB-to-Ethernet bridge devices are glitchy and requires special software to operate. I hear Alcatel is awful about their USB Mac drivers, but I haven't experienced this first hand. Plus you are limited in the way of router choices (I repeat my mantra for broadband, GET A ROUTER for security, cost effectiveness, and in the case of DSL that uses PPPoE, ease of configuration). D-Link usually makes pretty good equipment.
I'm not 100%, but I think that the Airport does NAT (Network Address Translation, so you wouldn't need the router). Especially since you are using an Airport Base, GET AN ETHERNET BASED MODEM!!!!!! Trust me on this one. If I told you this and then had to come and set up a $#^^$!!^& USB modem, I'd have to slightly maim you ;) No offense personally of course, it would just be my professional duty. -Robyn On Saturday, January 11, 2003, at 11:58 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > D-Link DSL-200 > D-Link DSL-300 > Alcatel Speed Touch Home > Alcatel Speed Touch USB > Netcomm NB120 > > Thanks > > Pablo -- MacNetwork is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
