Of course, any ADSL router will work with Linux: just install a suitable
ethernet card in the box, connect to the router and go.

I currently use a Solwise SAR703 to support three Linux boxes and a 'doze
system. Its run without any problems since it was installed. The SAR703 is
now an obsolete model, but I'd unhesitatingly buy Solwise kit in future.
Their prices are reasonable, but my main reason for recommending them is
that their sales and support staff all know what they are
talking about. If you catch them on a technical point they will say that
they can't answer that point and hand you over to another staff member
who knows the answer.

Last time I rang them I was asking about a wireless+CAT5 ADSL/router and
PCMCIA card. When I listed the drivers I had available (Fedora Core 1 is
limited that way) they were knew what I was talking about and were able to
recommend an Orinoco card they were remaindering.
