I cannot get my home router working with Back To My Mac. I have an old Belkin router and a new Airport Extreme. Apple's support page (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1304) listing compatible routers has devices with wireless (which I don't need) or DSL rather than ADSL, which I assume will not work in the UK. I checked the list for devices without wireless and I did not find any which were able to connect to ADSL or were available in the UK.
Have any UK users had any success connecting to Back To My Mac? If so I would love to know which devices worked for them.
Unless you're really tight on space/power I'd go with separate devices for the ADSL modem (get one with ethernet, not USB) and wifi router (you already own the Airport Extreme).
Thanks for your help, but what I really need is makes and model numbers of known devices which support BTMM over ADSL in the UK. Although my old device says it supports UPnP and NAT there is something wrong with it which means it is inaccessible from my home setup. What I want to put together is exactly what you described, an ethernet ADSL modem connected to my AEBS, I just want to know of one that others have found works before parting with my money.
I have it working with a WAG325N as well as a DG834N, and neither of those are on that list. As long as your router has UPnP/enabled and UDP 5353 and 4500 ports forwarded, log out of mobile me then back in and all will be fine.
