The last time I had an ISP hook me up with a new connection, I made it very clear I did not want the provider's router, as I already have my own. That was fine, but the technician accidentally left the box with the router in my apartment, which I didn't notice until he was long gone. After about a year of holding onto this box I figured maybe I can put custom firmware on it and get some mileage out of an extra device, but no. This shit's locked down.
