With your own router, you can filter traffic going to the modem so that you don't leak stuff that you don't want to. This also makes testing easier in the case where there are problems as you can pull the router and test the modem without any acls getting in the way. This can make diagnosing whose equipment is at fault simpler.
That is exactly what I'm trying to do! I suspect that my router is faulty, and I want to diagnos it. That is why I must eliminate the router and connect just by using the modem. How on earth can I do that on Fedora? Where do I enter my ISP username and password? The ISP only provids instructions on how to do that in Windows.
