    Most of them have a built in modem. If not, it'll need an external ethernet modem. Check the manufacturer's website before you buy it

    The DLink 604 has a built in modem so you don't need your other modem any more. A USB modem (which I presume is what you have) wouldn't have plugged into a router anyway.
