How to avoid using my ISP's gateway/router? I live with people who still pay for cable TV, so the coax is required for some TV functions. (alien.top)

I got rid of their gateway a long time ago and just plugged my router directly into the Ethernet cable from the ONT

Should be an Ethernet cable... At least that's what mine uses. Might be able to run an Ethernet cable from the ONT into where your router is, if they didn't use the Ethernet cable. if it's missing the Ethernet port, maybe a new ONT box too? That's at least my setup...
