[QUOTE="RNDdave, post: 708729, member: 20405"] Hello. 1. No > you need to buy a modem as well > the airport express is a router and requires a DSL or Cable modem in order to access the internet. 2. Yes > If you buy a wireless router with [B]N[/B] then the machines that also have [B]n[/B] wireless support will be able to communicate with the router and other [B]n[/B] devices at the faster speed. Communication between your MBP and another laptop using [B]g[/B] will affectivly reduce the speed between both devices to that of the [B]g[/B] standard. You will see [B]n[/B] speeds when transferring data from your MBP to the USB drive. The speed of b, g, or n will not really be an issue with regards to internet usage as the speed is usually limited by the DSL speed rather than your personal network. [/QUOTE]
