When talking about an ADSL modem wireless router, the acronym stands for asynchronous digital subscriber line. The DSL portion of the router name denotes that it accepts connections from a DSL line. When the router is specified as being asynchronous, it refers to the differences in the speed of uploads and downloads. ADSL routers generally download much faster than they send information, sometimes as much as 10 or 20 times faster. This only becomes an issue for applications such as video conferencing or playing online games, where upload speeds are important for a smooth experience.

Do you have to have a modem and a router?

A wireless router provides a wireless network, but does not provide Internet connectivity by itself, unless it is a combination router/modem, such as a Motorola Surfboard. A typical home wireless router will not have this functionality included, so a cable modem is often required to access a cable provider's Internet service. Buying a device that includes both wireless routing and cable modem features will allow the network to access the Internet without a dedicated cable modem, while all others will require a cable modem separately. In either case, a device that provides the features of a cable modem is required for cable Internet.
