I subscribed to this idea for years ... until I had "Internet" issues at my office. Called Comcast, tech visited and blamed my old router. I called them on their bluff (it wasn't) and had them install a Comcast combo router/modem - problem solved, didn't need to buy a new router. I can now call Comcast whenever anything slows, or breaks at my office. They're responsible for it all, I don't have to worry about managing my own router and never have the situation where my hardware can be blamed.

I value my time (which = money) greater than my "geek" needs to have a separate router. I don't get paid to fart around with router reboots, firmware upgrades or hardware updates.

Edit: Spelling/grammar.
