Which ADSL Ethernet Modem/Router?


I'm looking for an ADSL Ethernet Modem/Router, which is known to work with linux.

It needs to support multiple public IPs.
EG, my ADSL provider (Nildram - UK) provides me with 7 useable IP addresses, The primaray One being assigned to the modem via DHCP, the others must be assinged manually. I would like to be able to assign the IP's to an interface on my Linux Box, (the interface is directly connected to the modem) and then to be able to use the IPs like normal.

The modem would need to be compatible with UK ADSL standards (pppoa VC-MUX)

Any Ideas?
