Try at your own risk, but now my 'free' dsl modem is a router with NAT, DHCP, and it's own PPPOE software

I actually picked up a nice bit of performance by upgrading, I guess the router was crippled quite a bit by running in 'modem' mode. My latency improved by 40 to 60ms and my throughput is up as well. Not too bad for an hour's work of firmware upgrade.

Just did it on mine, and it worked like a champ!

Same here, speeds seem to be a bit better so far.
