Are you sure it is not the cable or usb port used?

They seem to have some others at the moment but I did get an adsl modem
with 1 ehternet and 1 usb connection from Maplin. They do have other
other modem/routers from 30 to 80 quid.

I found it quite easy to set up as they are full devices on their own.
basically just turn it on browse to it tweak the settings and change the
default password and it was ready to go.

Good luck
