    Default Can I run Airport on dialup and DSL at the same time?

    I've been using a white Airport base station for a dialup internet
    account, but will be switching to a DSL account next week. I'd like to
    run both in parallel until I'm sure the DSL system is working to my
    satisfaction. Then I'll cancel the dialup account.
    Is this possible, or do I have to keep switching the settings
    depending on which one I want to use?

    As you were told a month ago, if you are connecting through your base
    station, you will have to switch the settings on the base station each
    time you want to switch Internet connection methods. The alternative
    would be to use either the dialup connection or the DSL connection
    directly from one of your Macs without going through the base station.

    You're right, you did tell me this before and I apologize for
    asking it again. I've had so many things to deal with in upgrading two
    Macs to OSX that it slipped my mind, particularly since I had decided to
    put off moving to DSL until I got everything else done. I appreciate
    your patience with an OSX newbie.
