ADSL with Laptops

I want to use an ADSL line solely with two wireless laptops. Any
recommendations for a combined ADSL wireless router with a combined printer
port?

Or go cheaper & get the older Vigor 2600g which has the printer port
already installed.

The 2800G has it one as well. The rerason for the 2800 is that there is much
more security. Having said that the 2600 is still a good machine.

With both models you need to be sure your printer is compatible - I
know for sure my Laserjet 1000 isn't. But then, what should I expect
from a printer that doesn't have an on/off button..

Which is one reason I use printers attached to my LAN via Ethernet and not
to any one machine. I just print to the IP address of the printer I want
and away it goes.
