Hey all my ISP is sending me a new generic router. Can I change my wifi name to the old routers name and password to the same old password and all my smart bulbs and alexas stuff will just connect to it? Or am I being too optimistic?

In theory, yes. But some devices actually check the router hardware code and will require you to re-connect to the new network.
But for the most part, it should work with 99% of the devices.
