Gee, back in my day, modems didn't talk to specific dynamic DNS systems 
automatically, you ran a client on your PC... :o

Seriously, if you have the money, the Netgear DG834 is pretty good, and 
does have integral dyndns support.

But if you already have a DSL302G and this is your only reason for wanting 
to change, i'd recommend you pursue Shanes suggestions...
