While they “may” allow it. They absolutely have a say, and can prohibit it. Same way apartment complexes can prohibit pets.
Comment on Student dorm does not allow wifi routers

They don’t want you plugging in your own gear to their network, fine.
Get one of the “5G Home Internet” services from T-Mobile or Verizon, plug your router into that.

Not on their network, they have absolutely no say over it.

Not really, it’s not their network. No way to prohibit it. All you’d do is plug it into power.

The dorm could, the ISP couldn’t.

While I believe they really could, that would be really stupid. Is creating a hotspot with your phone suddenly also not allowed? Because that’s all it essentially is.

Since the price mentions British Pound Sterling as currency I dont think Verizon would be there. But T-Mobile is probably there in the UK.

If this is UK major local ISPs would be: O2, EE, Three
T-mobile did exist for a while but is not defunct and where replaced by Orange and then EE.
Three are the cheapest generally if they have coverage there.
