My ISP, Rogers in Canada, has always provided the modem, going back to the late '90s. However, some resellers allow customers to buy their own. Also, the main phone company also provides modems for their ADSL customers. same in Indiana when I was on cable. when I switched to dsl, the provider installed a combination modem/router. currently 1g fiber at&t.
Originally, Rogers provided only a plain modem. Then "gateways" which included a router. Now the box I have does Internet, home phone and IPTV. However, since I have put it in bridge mode, the router & WiFi are not used.
