In a word no, historically whenever Ive bypassed the router its made no difference and has been the same on 4 different ones, but that doesnt mean I cant try again , however I cant put the modem in the middle of the room because the length of cable prohibits this.

One thing that may be worth a mention is the fact that where the cable comes through the house brickwork, the white box is screwed just an inch above the radiator pipework, and behind this pipework runs an extension lead to power the phone on the other side of the living room.

Only problem is I cant eliminate this as a noise source as its the point of entry into the property.
