The limitation goes back to the time when routers cost upwards of $200 and hardly anyone had one. Things are getting better now for some manufacturers but still not all.

I'm more concerned these days about malware that attacks routers and the inability to find out if your current one is vulnerable.

You may want to spend more than $35 on a router. ;-)

My favorite example is wifi routers.  They ship with a default password

And almost all the routers I've had over the years won't even *let* you change the login name. It's always "admin" and that's it. Pah.
