Pics: ADSL modem/router to match the Airport Extreme

[Gordy]

I've just picked up a new Airport extreme and as I have ADSL internet I needed a secondary router/modem. I wanted to something to match the Airport Extreme and I came up with the idea of using an old Lacie Mac Mini hard drive companion as a home for my modem/router. The lacie is designed to fit under a mac mini, but the Airport extreme is the exact same size.

Router: netgear DG834

Case: Lacie Mac Mini Companion

It turned out well I think

I've done a step by step guide on my website here: http://gordy.me/t

Not really sure why you need two routers one on top of the other, but ok.

I get my Internet via ADSL. So I have to have a modem to go with my airport. I wish Apple did one with the modem included.

This is my AE setup, with the same modem you have:

Yeah, I suspect that apple will never do it though.

Nice hiding of your router
