Ports & connectivity

1× 10BASE-T Ethernet WAN · 1× 10/100BASE-T Ethernet LAN · 1× V.90 56k modem (RJ-11) · AC power

Second-generation base station — the white "Snow" dome replaced the graphite "UFO"
Added a second (LAN) Ethernet port alongside the 10/100 WAN — the UFO had only one 10BASE-T port
Kept the built-in 56k V.90 modem for dial-up bridging, including sharing an AOL connection
Still 802.11b at 11 Mbps; uses a removable AirPort card that also fits compatible Macs
No USB port — USB printer sharing didn't arrive until the 2003 AirPort Extreme
