3rd Party DSL Modem Recommendation

I’d like a recommendation for a 3rd party DSL (not Uverse) modem/router. Which is your favorite? I have a bonded pair line. Thank you!

None. They won't work. Only at&t gateways will authenticate you for access to the network. You can however place your own router behind the RG

If it's LEGACY DSL (the kind that requires filters for your telephones), I used a Netgear DSL modem because the 2-wire brand was a piece of crap.  It had external antennas, more powerful, 4 Ethernet ports on the back, plus a USB 2.0 where you can plug a hard disk into it.  There was a setting I had to figure out before it will work with AT&T (I believe you had to enable "PPP over ATM").
