When I went shopping for a router I had a lot of trouble finding one.
I basically don't care about "features," but I wanted the latest WIFI standards because of reception issues in my house, and at least 4 wired ethernet ports. (I don't want to have to buy dongles / extenders for wired ethernet ports.)
It was surprisingly hard to find an OpenWRT router that supports the latest WIFI features, so I just went with a proprietary router.
