    I use a Netgear DG814 combined Router/modem, again with 4 ports

    I use Zen Internet since September last year, mainly because I am "camping" at
    my present address and most other ISP's only offer 12 month contracts for
    ADSL. For an independant opinion of ADSL provision within the UK, look no
    further than http://www.adslguide.org.uk/. There is a compare link there
    where you can select upto 4 ISP's and compare their performance over the last
    several months. My previous ISP was Demon, a good-ish ISP and much better
    than BT, otherwise known affectionately (I am sure??) as BT Openwound -
    called so because of their propensity to lose emails, I believe.
