Marta,
    I have the same question you have now.

    I see that router and obsd together makes no sense. You could choose
    one or other. If you have some firewall or some server(httpd, dns,
    etc) in obsd, you could discard the router.
    By the way, there some adsl modems that are router two (with 4
    ethernet interfaces) and it's cheap. This ways, you could remove some
    unnecessary hops.
    That is my opinion. :)
