You problem, it seems, its that you don't have the competitive landscape to offer alternatives.
There are alternative providers, but I do not want to change, there is no significant advantage and some inconveniences (like email address change, different TV service). And each one comes with their own access router.
There's no shortage of DOCSIS-3 modems under $50 on eBay, even ones under $50 with shipping! Some have user configurable firewalls.
I do not know if DOCSIS is what is in use or not. I do know that some people use their own modem-router for fibre with this provider. But I do not want that extra complexity on my life. (I did buy a router for ADSL, which now works as WiFi access point instead) And I would not trust a 50$ router, anyway. -- Saludos/Cheers, Carlos E.R.
