Yes, I got one from my ISP. Out of the box it does a terrible job doing
NAT (heavy loads caused it to reset), so I turned it into a dumb modem
with a so-called "sipspoofing" template. If you have a choice I strongly
advise against this type. Just get the dumbest modem you can find and
let OpenBSD handle nat and firewalling, as it's vastly superior.

HTH,
Sven
