Can I use the same wireless router and only change the modem in case I have to switch from starhub to singtel and vice versa?

Its a dlink...probably DIR655 or 635. But i do not know whether it supports ADSL..

They don't but its a good idea. Just get a generic router of either brand or specs that you like. You can get cheapo modem for ADSL and free cable modem when you sign up for starhub.

Both 655/635 supports adsl
Ensure that the singtel modem that they give you is an ethernet based not usb

shd be no prob. you can choose from the cheap G-versions (eg DLink DIR300 is only $49) or the newer N-versions (better for video/music streaming but NOT faster for internet).
for Starhub, the Hub Station even comes with a built-in cable modem and free 1Mbs Internet till Dec 2009.
