Try making sure you're looking for a DSL modem, and not a DSL modem router combo. If it's just a modem then there is no bridge mode to enable because it's always in bridge mode. You'll have to supply your own separate router, but that gives you the freedom to run whatever you want on your router while the modem does it's modemy things.

The last DSL connection I dealt with I bought the newest Netgear DSL device and flashed openWRT.
With a DSL connection your not going to get that great of performance unfortunately.
I used to use a DrayTek Vigor120 in bridge mode.
