DD-WRT firmware can be installed on many routers. It does not support
WPS, and defaults for other things are more secure. For one thing, uPnP

It's a security hole. If you don't need it, it should be turned off if
present. I know of some people who have routers with WiFi, never use
WiFi, and leave it on (and maybe even without security).
