Will this work ok?

Im thinking about buying a Linksys AM200 ADSL2+ Ethernet Modem (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=NW-059-LS)
because my current modem is too laggy with my Linksys WRT54GL. Will this modem and router work perfectly, because my current modem has lag spikes (tracert shows 180ms+ to modem usually)

Many thanks

Im running this config

Code:

Internet -> Modem (10.0.0.2) -> Wireless Router (WRT54GL - 192.168.1.1) -> 1. PC (Wired)
                                                             -> 2.Xbox 360 (wired)
                                                             -> 3.DS's (Wireless)

My modem (10.0.0.2) should have ~24ms ping over ethernet, surely?

tbh, I've always gone for routers with built in modems.

I thought it did have a built in modem until i unpacked it.

I have pinged both ips:

tracert reports high ping:
