I got a D-Link DSL-604+. Its a four port switch + access point + DSL
modem. Its worked from the very start, and saves me from running cables
through a small apartment (hence the place looks tidy-ish). Not sure on
the security; the (web) admin is HTTP, and not HTTPS (why do they not
offer this? Of course the SSL cert will expire/be invalid, but heck, I
don't need the authentication, just the encryption).

I forward port 22. ;) And in some senses, that means I forward
everything (ie, port forwarding and reverse forwarding with SSH). 
Simple to set up, and works.
