Re: What ADSL2+ router with Airport Extreme?
Hi Steven, your friend is http://whirlpool.net.au/ This is an extensive site that will answer all of your questions and more. There is a forum on there especially dedicated to iiNet including the router question.

The iiNet web site doesn't seem to indicate what model Belkin modem is supplied. I do run multiple Macs over the network, but again the Extreme being plugged into the Belkin takes care of that right? Or should I avoid the iiNet provided Belkin altogether? I don't think it matters, but another consideration is that I'll probably upgrade to Leopard and a Time Capsule eventually. Any thoughts on what modem/router I should buy appreciated.

Re: What ADSL2+ router with Airport Extreme?
Hi, I'm using an iinet ADSL+ router, went for the non wireless as I have the Airport extreme and express, like you, so wireless would be superfluous. If the one port modem still allows you to plug in your phone, for VOIP, then it would pretty much do the job. Unless you've ever felt you wished you had one more ethernet port on the Extreme...
