I have a broadband connection, but it's not a wireless connection, and I can receive radio station broadcasts on my PC.

I've heard recently about separate internet radios which can be used to listen to internet radio stations without the PC running, though from what I've seen they appear to require a wireless connection.

Is there a type of internet radio available which can be used without the PC running, and also without a wireless broadband connection?

For example, could the radio just plug direct into the external modem?

Thanks
