Cox started giving the modem away. I pay $65/month and it came with a router that I don’t have to send back. It works fine. It’s not a “panorama gateway” tho.

I’m not sharing your reservations on security or sharing your personal bandwidth. But I do share your concern over cox handling security. Ha.

Are you aware of project like Althea or Helium. Or libreMesh if you want to weed out the blockchain aspect.

Anyway, I was surprised how those stack seems ready to “disrupt the last mile delivery of bandwidth/broadband.” (Sorry for the use of “disrupt” )
