I see all these WAPs but I can't find one that has the cable input built in. Any advice?

I've never seen a cable modem with built-in router/WAP (although it would likely be a very popular product!)

The problem is that there are several different cable modem standards (although most are interoperable now, but they'd still have to provide 2-3 different models of router), and if your cable company changes things in their network (which would normally just require swapping the cable modem), you'd have to toss the whole router and buy a new one.

Toshiba makes one, the PCX 5000, ambit makes one, and there's at least a few others out there.

Motorola has a nice one too, has a printer server built in as well. Here's a link to it at Be$tbuy
