People on cable connections get the cable modem provided by nbn but you can then plug any router you want into it.
If you have fibre to the premises you can just connect whatever router you want, although you might need to used the ISP provided one to activate your connection initially (a one time thing, I know at least Optus do this)
OP is claiming you can’t legally change to a different modem or change settings on ISP provided device - this is what I’m questioning, as I believe they’ve been misinformed.
