Or, maybe these typical scenarios will help you decide:
 
{| class="wikitable"

!scenario
!colspan=2| Suggestion
|-
|I'm a home user, wanting wifi and wired connections for ADSL or FTTC
|[[Image:T582-small.png]]
|Technicolor 582n
|-
|I have my own routerboard or similar router with ADSL
|[[File:DSL_320B_D1.png]]
|DLINK DSL 320B.
In bridge mode, your router can then talk PPPoE to it.
|-
|I'd like to do bonding with ADSL/FTTC
|[[File:2700-small.png]]
|FireBrick 2500, and use a DLINK modem if you have ADSL lines. Or use a 2700 of you have faster lines and may want fallback to 3G.
