D-Link's website seems to have nothing on the above, but does list DSL-302G.
That should be usable from any OS via the Ethernet interface, as they say.
External DSL modems in general hide the RFC1483-ness of the DSL link, and
look like a bridge leading to the ISP's network.  Just set your IP addr and
add a default route to the ISP's router's address (usually .1 on whatever
net you're assigned to).
