It depends on what IOS version/train/feature set you load onto the router. 
The boxes above are just pieces of hardware.  The only difference the 
hardware really makes is in scalability (number of concurrent sessions, 
throughput, whether function XYZ can be offloaded to an ASIC, etc).

Much of the information you're looking for is available on Cisco's 
website.  If you have a CCO account, you can go through the software 
advisor to find IOS releases that have the features you need.

That's a little too vague of a question to answer specifically.  There are 
lots of variables there - DSL type (ADSL, SDSL, ADSL2+, VDSL, HDSL...), 
delivery method (bridged, PPPoE, PPPoA, etc), any other requirements your 
ISP/telco add on, etc.

Many people have routers connected to a wide variety of DSL setups.  Your 
best bet would be to describe your setup - maybe someone on the list has
something similar.
