What you need is what is commonly known as a 'cable' router - it doesnt matter that in your case you are not on cable - the main thing is that there is not a dsl modem built in.

The linksys wrt54gl is often recommended on here and I see pixmania have it for 49 euros. You could also do a bit of future proofing and get an 'n' one but they are likely to be more expensive.
