Ewwww. :( Here, you can use any compatible router, you just have to configure it for the relevant service. Cable companies tend to supply their modems. Back when I had cable, this modem was just a bridge, but these days they are full blown routers (I believe bridge mode is still possible). DSL providers give the option of supplying a modem (usuallt paid for in installation fees or contract period), or you can use your own. My provider does not actually bundle any modem, they offer a selection, which you can pay for, or you can use your own.
