A popular irish ISP device is the ZyXEL 630-11
apparently based on the speedtouch. (the driver is hauntingly similiar
at least). Available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/zyxel630-11
and has worked well for me, apparently should cover things alternatively
branded as...

Asus aam600ug, 
Digicom MichelAngelo USB A, 
Topcom Webracer 851 
PROLiNK Hurricane 8000
