Reading the review of the DSL-300T, there is a section titled "Using the D-Link DSL-300T with a router" which talks about how to get a braodband router working behind the modem. So, your Cisco router should work with a DSL-300T, but as I said it costs almost the same as a Linksys box and means you have two devices doing the job that one could do!
Bottom line - get an ethernet ADSL modem and you should be able to use the Cisco.

What you going on about?!?
DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line; ADSL is a type of Digital Subscriber Line called an Assymetric Digital Subscriber Line because it can download faster than it can upload, you can also get a Symmetrical Digital Subscriber Line which would have the same upload speed as the download speed but these can be quite expensive.
Cable is a completely different thing all together using totally different technology.
