How can you connect a wireless router (via ethernet) through a phone-line modem?
I've had a Time Capsule on my hands for some time and I've been itching to use it ever since I got it last year. The only problem is that my ISP (FrontierNet) connects through a phone-line and the Time Capsule lacks 56k modem ports... only Ethernet ports. Are there ways to connect a router in this manner? I've been thinking that there's some kind of ethernet-to-phone line converter out there but I haven't found it yet. Thanks, your answers are always appreciated.
