Finally, a new ADSL router for me…
… to replace the Taiwan-made one that got screwed sometime ago… I got myself the Alcatel (now the whole DSL product line belongs to Thomson) SpeedTouch 510 ADSL router with 4 10Mbps port 
It’s a ADSL modem/terminal adapter and a router in one… and it even comes with firewall capabilities (though the firewall settings can’t be configured over Web interface, only in telnet)… I got it at a dirt cheap price… if you’re interested to get yourself a superb modem/router/hub combo, contact me and I’ll get you a good deal, shouldn’t really disclose the price here… lotsa dealers will kill me! 
Anyway, I’ve even setup a MRTG monitoring on the router (the router itself doesn’t support SNMP, but I’ve got a Perl script workaround for that - contact me if you want it too) which you can see it here: http://auyongtc.homelinux.net/
I’ll add more graphing on the PC that I have here at home soon… as soon as I figure out the MIBs for the Windows SNMP support… perhaps after CNY
Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Dude! I got mine for RM300… haven’t really explored the TELNET settings. Tell me if you get to unlock it!
Does its TELNET capability imply that it has enough intelligence to run Linux?

I’m very interested in you perl script work around for MRTG monitoring.
I’m trying to do a similar thing at work, and my router also doesn’t support SNMP.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have a USR9106 which doesn’t support SNMP. Will your Perl script work with any router, or does it have to be modified for each router?
