From the ISP side, I can tell you that when a customer signs up for service and you offer them a couple of choices of wireless routers, they almost always pick the cheapest one. If you give them a reasonable / good router when you hook-up their service, some will still put their old 15-year old netgear back in place after the install crew leaves because they 'like it better' or they think it's faster.

Between turning up new customers everyday, and fixing problems with pre-existing ones, ISP's tend to do the absolute minimum with the AP's/routers they supply. Mark.
