Yes. All airport models support NAT. The newer models, version 2 or 
with dual ethernet ports (WAN/LAN) also allow PPOE and AOL (including 
dsl). As far as I know - *no* other router/base-station supports AOL 
connections. Of course, who would *want* to use aol in the first place 
is another story ^_^. Nonetheless  its nice to have the option.
