I am looking for an ADSL router which is easy to setup in bridge mode.

I had a Chronos and Telkom Marconi router which were very easy to setup in bridge mode. You would simply go into the WAN configuration and change the mode to from PPPoE to bridge mode.

I got a Mecer router the other day and could not get the thing to work in Bridge mode. I went into thed WAN configuration and change the mode from PPPoE to Bridge. But did not work. I then phoned Mecer's tech department. They talked me through on setting the router up in bridge mode, but still no luck. I thought there was something wrong with either my mail server or line. Then I plugged in a really old Marconi Telkom router. Set it up in bridge mode in 1 min, and everything was working.

So what I am asking is what the the best and easiest router you guys have found for setting up in bridge mode. I don't want to fork out some extra cash to find that the router is an absolute mission to get into Bridge mode

D-Link DSL-2500U ships by default in bridge mode (or TP-Link TD8840, same price with 4 Eth ports vs D-Link's one).
