I scusiamo per non parlare italiano!

I moved recently to Milan and installed Alice 20 Mega (NO VOIP!). However im not at all satisfied with the modem they provided:
- Really buggy connection over wireless
- weak signal of the wireless
- Its locked and unable to turn on PPPoE, so i have to do it manually each time windows starts
- Overall feels like a very poor modem
- it seems i cannot activate UNPN as well since its locked and thus cant get Media server to work (to use on my ps3 for example)

My question:
It seems possible to change to modem provided my by Alice with another one. From what i read Linksys WAG160N seems a good choice.
1. What do i need to know (setting perhaps) before i change it? I am quite proficient with PC, but my knowledge with dsl modems is average.
I understand they could be articles and discussions on the topic, but i havent managed to find a lot, due to me unable to speak italian.
2. Any suggestions on a other good dsl modem + wireless, etc besides the Linksys WAG160N?

Grazie milla!!!
Hi, I have Alice 20 Mega , too.I use a Netgear DG834GT with a custom firmware and I'm very happy of it, it works like a charm! The line is very stable.
I suggest you this router with any doubt!
