I also have this router (I'm assuming its the same one, mine is a
SpeedTouch), and I am very happy with it. I haven't had to make any
changes to it since I installed it, it has just been running silently
and without a failure (touch wood).

It is configured out of the box to use NAT, but it is trivial to
reconfigure to your needs. The manual is not excellent, but it does the
job.

FWIW, I'm using Pipex Extreme (which is wires only) and I sourced the
router myself.

Cheers, - Paul
