I moved away from the x86 box to Mikrotik after a late night spent debugging NIC issues in BSD/Debian (Proxmox VM)
They have inexpensive devices (Hex wired router will handle up to about 1 Gbps), and they receive software updates for longer than any hw manufacturer I can think of.
The main gateway router in my household has become something that needs to work reliably, not something I can (or want to) tinker with all that much. The MT devices are infinitely flexible, but rock solid and cheap.
