I have a Router and wanted to find out what it is for ADSL 1 or 2. It is a Netcomm ADSL Integrated Gateway with wireless NB5580W. So does this mean it is a modem too and since I have so-called ADSL+2 is this modem going to be able to do the job? I can plug 4 pc's into it and I have read the manual but do not know that much about the whole ADSL/ADSL+2 business. Can anyone fill me in. I got a modem which I was told by optus is adsl+2 but it is not a router so only one pc goes into it.

It looks like it's just a router but it's all explained there.

Mmmmm ok it is a bit confusing because I had a closer look last night and there is a port for the phone line and 4 for etho cables. That page basically has the same things as the manual I downloaded a few days ago.
