I use my iBook with an Airport for wireless dial-up internet access, question is if I go broadband do I need a broadband router plugged into the Airport or can I configure the Airport to access the broadband connection direct?
I was considering using Tiscali but their website says their broadband is not supported on Macs, any reason why this should be so?
Si.

You need a router with your airport.Buy a cheap D-Link 504 which has a RJ11 port to attach your microfilter too.Setup goes thus:
Microfilter on ADSL line.RJ11 cable goes from microfilter to D-link router.RJ45 cable goes from D-link to airport(WAN port) and bob's your uncle.

I use a D-Link ADSL Ethernet modem 300G+ as recommended by Apple: http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObje...5.10.3.27.13.0
Has worked well with a number of service providers, haven't tried Tiscalli.
