Here is the link to the specifications:

I’m thinking that there may be something that isn’t configured within the modem/router that is stopping me from doing what I want to do. Any hints on what to investigate?

I will certainly get a router so we can get this to work for us. I have some follow-up questions if you don’t mind:

- I assume that the sequence in which the hardware is connected is DSL modem => router => switch, right? Do I have the access point(s) connected to the router or to the switch?

- Are there any technical specifications that I need to ensure that the router I purchase satisfies to do what I want?

- If we get a router, we want a good firewall and be able to have VPN for remote user access. However we are a church and have limited funds, so it needs to be relatively inexpensive. Is there a NetGear router that you would recommend to us?

Thanks again!
