The risk is the ISP Wi-Fi. As long as you’re using WPA with a good long random passkey, the risk is minimal. However, anyone who had access to your Wi-Fi could initiate an ARP spoof (essentially be a man-in-the-middle)
ETA: the ARP table in networking is a cache of which IP is associated with which MAC Address. By “poisoning” or “spoofing” this table in the router and/or clients, a bad actor can see all unencrypted traffic.
As an FYI: this set up is vulnerable to ARP spoofing. I personally wouldn’t use any ISP-owned routers other than for NAT.
Dude looks like Leonardo DiCaprio.
