My old ISP gave me a router/modem combo and wanted to charge me a fee for it, so I just bought my own modem and returned the router/modem after transferring the config over. There are tons of modems for all kinds of stuff online, just look around and find something compatible.
My current ISP is just Ethernet at the wall (pretty odd setup), and it’s been well over a decade since I dealt with a modem, so maybe things have changed. But it’s probably worth checking out, especially if they’re charging you for use of the modem (check your bill).
They don’t even allow me to go on the config page, if all the neighbours are on the same channel guess what, though luck you can’t change it, and there are 3 ISPs here and they are all the same.
And of course they charge for the shitty router but what can I do, like I said there are 3 options and they are all the same.
How are you forced to use their modem?
