Unhappy New Modem

Yesterday I went out and got myself a new ADSL modem. I decided to change the make and model and went for a D-links modem to replace my Netgear DM111 ADSL modem. What I thought would be an easy thing to do turned into a nightmare. It took me just over an hour to get the modem going so I could just look at websites. It turned out the modems inbuilt firewall was stopping my streaming server from working. I only found out it wasn't streaming when I tried to show someone last night and I couldn't connect. I was out at a meeting of my local rescue squad in which my a member of. I knew when I got back home I had my work cut out for me.

Anyhow on my return home I jumped onto the computer and started to look into why this modem was trying to make my life a living hell. I spent another hour or so on it and worked out this modem just will not talk to my Apple Airport Extreme correctly. The modem has has it's own router built in even thou it only has one Ethernet port on it and can only have one computer connected to it at one time. When I purchased the modem yesterday I saw this of the modem and thought it might be a good thing but boy was I wrong. So after the Australia Day holiday today I'm going to have to take the modem back to where I got it from, Dick Smiths, and exchange it for another make and model modem. Looks like I'll be sticking with a Netgear modem.

The only thing I would like to know is what's the difference between the Netgear DM111 which I have now and their newer model the DM111P? I'm guessing it's Google time lol.
