ADSL Router can be left on permantly and is a bit more realable than an
ADSL
Modem. Basically a ADSL Modem is usually attached off a machine, whereas
an
adsl router is plugged into a hub or switch.

If you get a Vigor 2600 (www.seg.co.uk) it has a built in firewall into the
router, but you could then point that to route to a ipcop/pc based firewall
if you wanted. Personally, i'd go with the vigor solution it suits most
peoples needs.
