Part of the problem with using your own modem is you legally allowed to do that. However, the ISP can throttle your speeds unless you use their equipment. So use their modem but your own router.

Not where I live. They are not allowed to throttle based on provided vs owner gear. Sounds like a shit ISP to me.
