Yes some are really atrocious, dlink come to mind. Some are better, the high end gaming routers by Asus actually have good support but just like phones they have a limited shelf life...

One thing I tried to find but couldn't is stand alone modems, most routers today don't come with a modem and you have to use the shitty one given to you by your ISP in bridge mode, I'm not sure about the risk of compromised bridge mode router to infect down to the router given it's "secured" but it's still can be a bot in a botnet.
