[QUOTE="StevenH, post: 609118, member: 24865"] My scenario is common with a lot of people considering Apple's wireless solutions, but there doesn't seem to be much information about it. I want to replace my current all in one wireless router and inbuilt adsl modem, with either time capsule, airport extreme or airport express. But each of these products needs an external ethernet modem to work with them. I've checked on the apple site about these products: [URL="http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=AE567205&fnode=home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/airport_wireless&nplm=MB276"]time capsule[/URL], [URL="http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=3AE0C296&fnode=home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/airport_wireless&nplm=MB053B/A"]extreme[/URL], [URL="http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=AB47AE5&fnode=home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/airport_wireless&nplm=M9470"]express[/URL] but they don't mention anything about compatibility with modems. So will they work with any ethernet modem whatsoever? The worrying thing is that, the only ethernet modem I can find on the Apple store is [URL="http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=7E4EB91E&nplm=TK797"]this netgear one[/URL] which nearly everyone says doesn't work with the products! Any advice on which one to get? [/QUOTE]
