I'm not asking for an OS independent modem. And I don't need to pay an exorbitant price for IPSEC support in a commercial product when I can implement it in software - for free - but I actually don't give a rats arse about IPSEC (just at the moment) or any other flashy features of Cisco (yuck) or other _routers_ - I don't want a router, I want a modem! I want my Linux box to firewall (and NAT) my network and the ATM connection on the Linux box, not outside it and for that I need an internal modem, end of story.

*Insert dummy* I WANT A LINUX ADSL MODEM - WAAAAA!!!!
