How about putting the ISP supplied modem in a DMZ? Then the ISP could admin it all they want but still never touch the LAN.

- bennyp101 2y agoSo open it up to anyone? DMZ is an open target, not what you want to be doing.
- ipython 2y agoIt’s more about protecting your network against a potentially malicious device rather than protecting the device from attackers on the Internet. From that position, placing the isp device on a “DMZ” aka outside your own router/firewall, makes perfect sense.
- autoexec 2y agoThat's pretty much the way to go. Keep the ISP modem, but connect it to your own router/firewall and connect your devices to your hardware and not the ISP modem.
