Airport Express Confusion

Ok I am looking in to replace my Belkin 54g wirless Router. I am looking at a netgear, and the Airport Express (the iTunes one). The iTunes and USB printing etc sound great, BUT does the Express of the Extreme actually come with an ADSL modem BUILT IN?!? Or do I have to have 2 devices, a modem and the express to get a connection?



Cheers

    You need both the Airport Express base station and the appropriate ADSL or Cable modem that outputs to it via ethernet (or you can buy a non-Apple product that combines both, and quite probably costs less too).



    Of only historical interest, I believe there was an Airport Base Station with a built in dial-up modem (i.e. not ADSL or cable) but I'm not sure if it's even made anymore.
