They still sell the ER series, but Microtik sounds like what you want.
However, it's likely that your ER-4 will far outlast the majority of devices you can find running OpenWRT. They're very well built units.
- stephen_g 5y agoYeah, I’ve used Microtik gear, and I never liked their software. I hear the performance has improved a lot though (that was a big selling point of the Ubiquiti gear when I got into it with their hardware acceleration). I expect I will eventually move to embedded server hardware (even maybe Xeon-D) on a machine running vSphere or something with a router VM and other VMs for stuff I want to run. Just have a few separate NICs and pair it with a separate managed switch (which I already have anyway).
