Using O2 Wireless Router as just a modem?

I have the typically substandard O2 Wireless Box II, which quite frankly is ****e. However, a friend has given me a near mint condition TL-WR841N router - supports DD-WRT, much better spec but doesn't have an ADSL2+ modem, as far as I can see.

So, is it possible to just use the O2 box as a modem and plug it straight into the new router, and if so how? Obviously I'm unlikely to get exact instructions, but pointing me in the right direction would be a start.

Many thanks.
 
Just for reference, in case anyone drags this up using the search.

Install DD-WRT, follow the DD-WRT "Wireless Access Point" tutorial on the Wiki, disable wireless on the O2 box. Sorted!
