It’s interesting to learn that service providers provide routers for customers in some places of the world. I never would’ve imagined this.
In my country, to get a router from the service providers, you must be an outstanding customer of some sort. Maybe you do many transactions, or buy huge packages or offers. The point is that it’s given as an award for some sort of good customer behavior, but rarely for free.
I hope to see a time where service providers give out even modems to customers. That’ll be an interesting development to see here.
Hopefully that time will come. It's really good to get a router for free as it saves me a lot of money. Here you get the same services, this is not a bonus.
