Since I'm using a new AlPB with a modem in it, that's not an issue for me. ;o) And I see Apple is offering two flavors of ABS now - one with and one without a modem... as for the rest of you who replied, thanks for the info! now I have something to chew on...I'll be making a decision and picking one up shortly before I get my cable turned on in my new apt. in the DC area. -----Original Message----- From: Erik Gaderlund To: PowerBook G4 Titanium List Cc: Snoke Jay S NPRI Sent: 2/10/2004 6:38 AM Subject: Re: [Ti] wireless routers/hubs? Unless you really need the faster 'g' wireless (aka Extreeme) just find one of the many 'b' hubs I've been using a Netgear 814v2 at home with no problems, but, do check to make sure the router can pass appletalk packets if you want to use Appletalk for networking. The one advantage of an ABS that it has a modem so if your broadband goes out you can still connect through your network. erik g At 02:18 PM -0500 02/09/04, Snoke Jay S NPRI wrote: > What are the best recommendations this list can provide regarding >the available wireless hubs/routers out there for home use?
