FRITZ!box are pretty good pedigree

Mikrotik are Latvian too I think

Second the Mikrotik!

I have used their stuff for years and years now and I love it. You get a whole bunch of power, very good software and maximum freedom in configurations for a very small price. Especially their enterprise grade config language is awesome, you can configure the whole thing with a few simple commands. You can export your config in a readable format, so you can quickly swap out different configs to try stuff. It also lets you understand the config completely, so you know what you are running.

3rd for mikrotik. Rock solid stuff. Configuration has a bit of a learning curve but they have a ton of options which you can only dream on generic consumer stuff. Few years ago when I got 1/1Gbps uplink to home I tried cheaper unifi router but it could only do ~700Mbps with just bare nat and even less with slightly more complex configuration, current mikrotik can push (according to vendor tests) up to 7Gps. The model I have isn't available anymore but the price was around 120โ‚ฌ which at least back then was a bargain compared to anything else with comparable feature set.

Both are good products,for "nothing fancy" the Fritzbox is more fitting,though.

I have a Fritz!box 7530 for 2 years. It's been very good, does everything I want, stable. good UI. their online support and knowledge base is very good.
