$15. The cost of a new router, combined with the time it takes to deal with my own hardware makes it an easy sell. It's also worth noting that I'd need to drop the modem & router to erase this fee - the modem rental fee is $10 - so $5/month for a router I don't have to manage, looks even more affordable. I took the other approach at home. Just bought a new $175 router, which solved my "issues" (old router was crashing with heavy use). At home however, I have plenty of "fart around" time.
