They do have dual power headers on the board though, so you can rip
out the single PSU and build your own PSU for dual power. I run 2x
CCR1036's at a site, with a 1RU box with 4 PSU's in it, 2 fed by A
power, 2 fed by B power, and one of each going to each router. Bit
of a muck around and takes up an extra 1RU but you can fit 3 or more
1036's in the cost of a single 1072 so it can be a good cost/benefit
thing.<br>

<p style="margin: 0px;">we have deployed Mikrotiks in the field
as PPPoE and LNS termination devices. they have been reliable
for us.</p>

<p style="margin: 0px;">however, we only use them for single

all sort of functionality etc and anecdoctally those tend to

<p style="margin: 0px;">if you do go down this path, note that
the CCR1036s are single PSU. the CCR1072 would be the more
ideal choice (If loaded), but then you are close enough in the
ballpark to the lower-end of the more established router
purveyors.</p>

<p style="margin: 0px;">We are about to deploy a new
