The Netopia VDSL[1] thingies that Swisscom gives along with the VDSL offer works like a charm over here. I just disabled the wireless on it (as I could not manage it and hey, that is not the way to do it) and put it into bridge mode and indeed have a Linux box behind it for IPv4 NAT and IPv6 tunneling, nice clean 1480 path to the PoP ;) Otherwise you might want to look at the new AVM 7570 box, that one can even do IPv6 (with some quirks like no static routing yet but it does work ;) even supports TIC+heartbeat. For that matter, just cut down the list to everything that does support IPv6 and skip the rest as that is then not a good investment.
