I have a D-link DSL-300 as my gateway on a RH7.3 box serving lan and wlan:). It works flawlessley. I'm connected to Internode who are very good from a service perspective. They are also bringing out some new plans that may incorporate speed shaping or similar so you don't get a 000's dollar bill if you go stupid.
