I have a netgear router that isn't even that old and it doesn't have gigabit ports.

even though I was able to throw openwrt on there to mess around with it's still e-waste

e-waste? a lot of networks dont need anywhere near gigabit. Especially because at a lot of places around the world even the ISP can't provide that bandwidth for internet, but this applies to internal networks too. in a lot of cases a 100 mbps capable managed switch (which a router can be, even if with limitations) is enough
