Does the Netgear wifi router include the ADSL modem also ?

I've read that some of the routers needs to be connected like : Modem -> WiFi Router and not every model has ADSL functionality.

That's why...

yes your absolutely right , you have to look for netgear routers with the DSL modem built in.. an easy way to identify that is to look for an RJ11( telephone ) port in it..

I have recently got a type II modem (DNA-A211-1). It has 4 ethernet ports and wifi. I want to know whether it is possible to share the connection with 6 people through wifi while putting a password to restrict connectivity to others. Or do I need to buy a router for this purpose? Kindly help.

DNA-A211-I is a type 4 ADSL ROUTER.
You can share the connection over wifi to more than 250 systems if you like, using this router.
You can (should) set a password for wireless on the router to allow only systems which authenticate using this password to connect. You can also restrict to the 6 systems by setting up MAC security on the router, so that only systems with the specified MAC addresses can connect.

There is atleast one guide on this forum on setting wireless security up.

You can set the WPA Pre-Shared Key in the modem, so those who know the key will only get connected through wifi.

For additional security you can use the Wireless -- MAC Filter option in the modem, the MAC ID or Physical Address of the WiFi Adapter will be stored in the modem and you can allow access only to whom you want.

Thanks Glass and Deepmohan for the quick reply. I did try to enable WEP-PSK in my modem and set a password but on doing so only one system was being able to connect to the net. The BSNL guys who had come to give the connection also had said the same thing that on putting password only one system is being able to connect through wireless at a time though it should not be so.
I havent tried the MAC filter yet. Is there any upper limit of the number of systems that can be connected with mac filtering?
And Glass what do u mean when u say to put password in a router? U mean I have to get an external router or r u talking about router in my modem?
