This is why we wrote RFC8585, so users can freely buy their own router ...

The ISP can also list some of the compatible models in case they are using "additional" features.

    I really, really hate to force users to use my network edge router (I 
    provide the ONT, though, and I provide an edge router that works and 
    most users do take it), but it can be tough to ensure users have 
    something that supports all the right modern features and can be 
    configured via standard means.

    It would be nice if the consumer router industry could get its 
    collective act together and at least come up with some easy-ish to 
    understand feature support table that customers can match up with their 
    service provider's list of needs.  The status quo of a list of devices 
    that work right (which is of course often staggeringly short if you're 
    doing any of these modern transition mechanisms) that needs constant 
    updating and may not be easily available is not ideal.

    Heck just having a real, complete list of supported features on the 
    model support page on their website would be an improvement...
