Habrasobshchestvo, advise a piece of iron with an integrated ADSL modem, wifi and the ability to install DD-WRT. Before that, a bunch of DSL-2600 and DIR-320 was used - there were too many wires, and it often jammed.

There is a problem with Dlink, for some reason they die for 3-4 years of work, or the buffer overflows and stupidly stops working, or some kind of bug, in general, you have to restart. In the first office Dlink is DIR655, so once a week it hangs stably, and the number of PCs on Wi-Fi is 5-6.
In the second office, there was no time, I ran in and bought the first Taiwanese Getnet GR-534W that came across for 20 bucks. I don’t know how much uptime is already there, but there was no such garbage. Although connected through it 2 stationary and 4 on the waffle.

DD-WRT does not support ADSL
, but with native firmware, it will do just fine, for example, Edimax AR-7284WNA (it gives `OGO` to friends)

Yes, ADSL and DD-WRT will not work together. I installed a TP-Link ADSL router with Wi-Fi N with native firmware at my parents' country house and another TP-Link 1043 with DD-WRT on the second floor. Cheap, fast, pretty stable. Only Domolink, bitch, got sick of it.

I am the owner of Dlink DIR 320 and Dlink DSL2600.
I advise you to look at a more expensive option, something from zuksels or asus.
My Dlink DIR 320 router sometimes hangs under load. When he worked at home, he hung almost every day.
Now hangs every 3-4 days. You have to overload.
Tried to reflash and all that. Glitches remain.
I downloaded the firmware from asus - there are glitches too. Looks like iron is to blame.
When transferring a 2 giga file over Wi-Fi, the Internet falls off between two laptops.
There are similar glitches with many long products.
In Dlink DSL2600, there are also problems with freezes.
+ a number of their bugs. Very funny in places.

Alternative firmware for ADSL modems is called: RouterTech and can be found here:

(I myself successfully use it on ACORP 422G)
