It's surprising (and disappointing) that gigabit ports are not yet ubiquitous on ADSL routers; their absence is obviously limiting for file-sharing/NAS usage. Macs have had gigabit for 9 years now!

"You can't turn the NAT/SPI off though why would you want to"
Actually in some situations I do. I often set up modems behind more sophisticated firewalls eg ClarkConnect, which I have set up for myself and clients with multiple WAN connections from different providers or with multiple static IP addresses from the provider to allow routing to multiple servers behind the true firewall. In this situation being able to turn off the NAT/SPI and let it all be handled by the true router is a godsend. This means you do fancy things like create mutiple IP addresses on the same physical ethernet interface. There other solutions but domestic grade routers are cheap as chips and reliable in general so being able to turn off the internal software is veyr useful. When I can't turn off the firewall DMZ will do, but it only works with a single static IP address so if the client needs multiple physical servers then you need NAT/SPI off. Clients can need multiple servers when they need multiple SSL certificates, so for example if I have a Citrix gateway server called remote.xxx.com and a webserver called www.xxx.com, to use SSL (https) I need multiple IP addresses and thus NAT/SPI off is essential.
