Rather than buying a router, is there an ADSL modem that will enable me to connect the XBox directly to the ADSL line.

Hi

I had the same problem and got a connexant adsl modem/router with 4 ports so the pc and xbox plus others can all be plugged in together.

You could try XBconnect instead of Xbox live.

Netgear DM602 is an ADSL NAT Modem than would allow you to connect up to XBOX Live. However all it is, is an basic 'cut-down' ADSL Router. For similar money I suggest you consider an ADSL router which have an built-in ADSL modem like the D-Link DSL-504. The 504 would give you more functionality which you might find useful in the future.
