Still not entirely convinced; I worked on both USB ATM modems and on
Solos, and the Solos is both the most modern and the only one I still
actually have. And the only one we have native support for that could
ever do full 24Mb/s ADSL2+, I believe.

If we drop it, OpenWrt will need to drop support for these, which I
think were quite popular at the time; there were a few UK resellers:

I still don't actually care *enough* to try to find an ADSL line I
could plug one into for testing though... :)
