> I find it ironic that you are selling the reliability of ASUS' firmware on a post about it breaking.

What in Earthly existence does not break eventually?

It's about dealing with the odds and rates of breakage.

If you read the article it was not a firmware issue, it was one of the security features it has downloaded an invalid config due to ASUS staff errors, the config caused the router to run out of available storage space and soft-brick. There was no firmware issue, any device will start crapping out when it runs out of available storage.
