Looking to get a used router for use with libreCMC (slrpnk.net)

I'm looking to get a used router on which to install libreCMC, but the list of supported hardware is quite short. I'd prefer to find something locally, and I doubt that I'd be able to find these particular models. However, I do not intend to use WiFi at all, so I wonder, are there any more recent routers that work 100% with libreCMC except for the WiFi? Preferably something with at least 4 Ethernet ports.

Thanks!

EDIT: What I want to know is which routers do not require any non-free firmware for any of the hardware other than the WLAN. Does anyone know of where to find such information, or how to tell based on the specifications of a router that has not actually been tested with libreCMC?

I'm sorry, I don't know about routers that much. Here in France you cannot really use another router than the one provided by your ISP
