Moreover, their whole website is not accessible when JavaScript is blocked, leaving the impression that security-minded people are not their target audience at all - which is really a pity!

Do you think the guy that designs their web site and the guy that works on phone security are even remotely related?
Do you think clients will be mapping out their whole corporate structure before making an assumption about their level of service?
If they are not, how can I trust anything written on that page about quality and security?
What does it matter? If a website for a new router only supported Internet Explorer, I definitely would know either I'm not their target market, or they know nothing about that market, or they don't care.
I would argue that the percentage of people who care about websites working with JavaScript disabled is so low that no hardware company considers them a target market
I wasn't saying that no JS support is hurting them. I was objecting to the notion that them being separate teams is relevant. It's perfectly reasonable to judge a product by how it is marketed.
Funny you mentioned that, ASUS latest routers try to mimic OSX UI.

It still works on Chrome but you never know what the next firmware upgrade brings...
