I stayed modem only for as long as I could until they forced a shub1 on me for 120mbits and I put it in modem mode right from the get go and never even tried router mode just to see what it was like.
I know there is a balance of keeping it simple, not over complicating things and trying to reduce tech support calls but I honestly believe people who can competently setup their own router should have their own router. I think it would cure a lot of unnecessary problems.

I bought the TJ210 from VM to save on the monthly fee with was added later.
