I have a Linksys router connected to my BS DSL modem as well.

Before I call BS with any DSL issue, I make sure I can log into the DSL Modem
they provided.  If I can do that, then I call them and use one of the
Windows machines on the network for all troubleshooting, of course I might
forget about mentioning the router ;)  This has worked on all occasions so far
because, if I could get to DSL modem and nothing had changed on my end,
the problem was always on their end (reset modem, bad line, etc).
