The problem is you have two routers and you don't need two routers. I'm guessing you

Airport supports AppleTalk over the wireless connection which very few other wireless
routers do. The Buffalo is one of the exceptions. Airport also has the ability to
connect a modem as backup to DSL/cable or as primary connection. This feature is
available on some other wireless routers
Are you network printing or direct connect? Some routers will work with AppleTalk if
you have it plugged in to one of the ports but not over the wireless connection. For
example, I've got an Apple LaserWriter 320 that connects with a wire to the serial
port on my PB3400 and I use AppleTalk

Use the simple, cheap steam type humidifiers. They don't make the white dust and
require only occasional cleaning and even that's pretty quick and easy. They also can
put out a lot of moisture in a short time which is what you need to avoid the static

You probably need to configure the Airport with the correct user id and password.
Most DSL accounts require that. Once you do it the information will be stored in the
Airport and you'll always be on according to the DSL modem.
