ADSL - what are the advantages of letting

RFCat_vk_01
the Astaro handle the ADSL interface rather than have the modem do the work?

I know of one advantage and that is the modem will reconnect quicker unless the Astaro is patched. Most SOHO modem/firewalls have an always on (connect) feature where as Astaro insists the standard between reconnect times be 15 minutes.

One disadvantage is you get double NAT'ed, which could explain a couple of issues my wife is having with a couple of websites.

Are there any other advantages or disadvantages?

    Important for me: can let the Astaro handle the DynDNS ! Don't need a DynDNS-Feature in the "Modem". And: if it's a "real Modem-only" Device don't have to configure it, just the Astaro...
    PortFwd and NAT issues also agreed!
