Yeah, I do the same thing.
Curiously, the installer of my ISP - which is one of the smaller ISPs around here - says it's very common for their clients to just want the ISP's box to do bridging (or even just act as a Fiber-modem) and use their own router behind it.
Guess the techies tend to flock to the more obscure ISPs that pretty much just provide "data pipe to the Internet" rather than use the big ISPs which tend to do stuff like push their own TV Boxes and even bundles of Home Internet + TV + Mobile.
I am very happy with this ISP - cheap, fast, reliable, no bullshit.
Yeah we had the bundle from a big ISP, home phone, TV, and unlimited internet and 10 email addresses. As kids moved out etc. We dumped home phone, and TV, just internet now as a bridge. I'd move to another provider but I still have 5 people using the email addresses; and for mine I'm slowly moving all my signups and bills over to another email so we can eventually make an easy switch.
