I'm curious how they expected you to use their extra IPs if they won't let their router be configured for them.
I assume the expectation is for any equipment that needs a public IP to be plugged directly into the router's layer 2 network.
I'm not seeing this with one specific ISP, it is the default configuration for new internet connections from almost any ISP, and increasingly I'm finding the effort needed to get it changed ranges from "really quite inconvenient" to "never gonna happen".
Its obviously not an issue where the firewall itself can be a PPPoE endpoint, or where the CPE is user-configurable. But connections terminated on CPE that only the ISP can manage seem to be very common these days.
