Don't get a router with a built-in modem - those available publicly in the UK are for DSL connections, and won't work with your cable broadband. There are routers available elsewhere that have a cable modem built in, but those won't work on the ntl system.

Your best bet is to have a look around a few sites like ebuyer, Dabs, etc., and choose one from there, making sure it's got an Ethernet WAN port, and not an ADSL modem.
