Nope, you need a new router with a built in ADSL modem I'm afraid.

You should be able to use a DSL router without inbuilt modem on ADSL. You need to use the ADSL modem, supplied by your ISP, and your ADSL modem will need an ethernet port.

Connect your ADSL modem to the phone line, router WAN port (ethernet) to the ADSL modem, and then your router LAN ports to your computers. Power them all in succession. If you've previously done odd setup things with your router make sure you have done a factory reset.

Yes, the BeBox will work on Be*, but they are pretty rubbish routers.
