Hi Ken,
I have Verizon Broadband Hi-Speed DSL (1.5/768 I think) and Verizon provides a 327W Westell Versalink combination Modem/Router/Hub. It has several ethernet ports and does wireless also, but I haven't ever tried the wireless part.
I don't know which "11" designation it supports, but I suspect it is probably up to date with the current common standards. I'll look into that though. I was considering looking for a used laptop as I only intend to use it for playing poker while washing the dishes, folding laundry or puttering around the workshop etc. I'll keep that 11b vs. 11g thing in mind.
