This is a router. There are routers and routers with a built-in modem. You can configure the router then if it connects to the internet via PPPoE or if it gets an IP via DHCP (other possibilities are not popping into my mind right now but I think). I have for example one modem to which one WLAN-router is connected (WRT-54GL w/ DD-WRT). This router is my "gateway", is the DHCP-server, does the NAT-traversal and creates a B/G-WLAN. To this router is a second WLAN-router connected (Apple Time Capsule) which only works as a bridge, creates a pure Draft-N-WLAN and works as a NAS. > For the moment I can access internet via my LAN cable directly to the > wall connection , and without any router.

There is some central connection to the network (there are not only dsl-modems). Your router would get an IP via DHCP probably and would create a private subnet for your home network. > if yes , does this mean I can use this "fonera" model ? Yes. NielsAttachment: smime.p7s
