Cheers. I did find that thread and have been studying the list, I'm suffering a little bit from not being able to see the woods for the trees with all the info in there.
I have the original BT modem so don't think I really need a single box solution however if a dedicated router only is going to serve my needs better.
BT stopped supplying ( and supporting ) the modem earlier this year, so if it fails you would need to replace it with something else. I suspect PN's answer would be to supply their current Hub One which cannot be configured as just a modem. All of those listed on the kitz link would be compatible with PN. For your requirements I suspect NAS performance is going to be the trickiest to evaluate since I'd be suprised if many people use that facility in anger.
Also most routers have a processor which can just about cope with the job of routing traffic and acting as a firewall with a few simple rules. So NAS functionality will impact their performance as a router.
Better to look for a proper NAS if you intend to use it for streaming movies etc from disk.
