[Gllug] ADSL 'modems'

[t.clarke]

As a matter of interest, I have a Netgear DM602 which seems to work well.
It has only a single ethernet connection at the back, which is fine if you
only want to web-surf etc on one PC.  However, 4-port switches are dirt cheap
these days if you need to connect more devices.  It does NATing in its standard
form, with connected devices expected to be in the range 192.168.0.2 - 254.
A computer with a browser set to IP 192.168.0.2 is required to configure it,
which is pretty straightforward.  The firmware also supports acceptance of
certain incoming port-connections with redirection to the required internal
IP address/port; although the standard config is to block all 'incoming'
connections.   Don't know whether Netgear still make it, but it seems a pretty
reasonable first-time buy.
