Hi,
As the new airport base station has got a USB port now, but only for
printers. I was wondering why it couldn't be extended to cover USB modems,
as there a lot of those out there ???. And there is no way I see you can use
a USB only modem with airport base station.
I ask, as there are USB modem, based for a particular technology, e.g.
ISDN or DECT wireless modem, ..etc. And as there no base station for OS-S
anymore like in 9.x. Then it not possible to create a wireless network.
Shouldn't be too hard as it should be the introduction of the USBModem
family, with the USBPrinter driver.
Thanks
Mark.
This is probably not the appropriate list for this type of
discussion. If you want a modem in the basestation, buy the model
that has a modem in it.
If you want to use an isdn modem, hook it up to your mac and use the
internet sharing, and just use the base station in bridge mode. The
fact is there are many many ways to achieve the same functionality
today with MacOS X's multi-homing and nat functionality.
