I do DSL's for accountants as part of my work.

I thought the Dlink DSL300 was cool when I first saw it, however it's
really a piece of shit. If you get one operate it in bridged mode and
use roaring penguin (PPPoE) on the linux box. You get a lot less dodgy
routing issues that way.
iiNet DSL is the easiest I've set up so far, after making sure your
modem is in bridged mode, use pppoeconf, it works like a charm and you
don't have to touch the config files.
