I see other router mfrs are producing HW with more and more on board security. I presume some mfr are doing it to try to help with recent hacks and such and helping to place more security at the router instead of near the end client.

That's what they would like their customers to believe, hence the subscriptions. If in doubt, take a look at NG rival's firmware, which provides fine grain parental control, access control, web filtering, and Trend Micro internet security to defend against malicious sites, malwares, and hacks. All these features are FREE and without string attached!
