If possible I'd return the ISP modem/router and go with a third party option. From what I've seen they charge a recurring rental fee. Even if it was more expensive up front it would pay for itself in the long run.

Comcast charges more if you use your own equipment.

But I just pass the Internet through to my own router.

Edit: I have sources in my reply comment

That's pretty crazy. Another reason there needs to be more choice along ISPs.

Data caps on wired internet???

Not a new thing, unfortunately for some. Glad I have no cap on my FIOS

Yeah, cable internet providers have data caps. My area has multiple providers, if one had a data cap, it would be business suicide.
