I successfully use Bigpond adsl with os/2 or eCs 1.2 for years now.  Check
that the bigpond adsl modem is set to act as a dhcp server - it is the
default setting for the speedtouch 530.  If your modem acts as a dhcp server
you may have a conflict with your other router.  You probably only need a
switch not a router to connect to the speedtouch modem.

I recently had problems with the adsl modem and had to replace it with
another brand.  I use it in conjunction with a wired switch and wireless
switch for wireless netwroking under OS/2.
