Unfortunately Mark, as well as the Thomson's various other problems (including forgetting to hand out dhcp responses after a few days up time), it also isn't coping too well with basic routing.

That's another reason to couple it with a DD-WRT box. Use the modem as an excellent *modem*, and do the routing/firewalling/whatever on a better box.

But if your line quality is sufficient to get by with a less capable modem, then by all means look for a better-done all-in-one unit.
