Great WiFi range but abandoned by Asus

by Vin star_border star_border star_border star star

Bought this as a replacement for a DSL-AC68U and in terms of WiFi range and performance it's a significant step up. However once in use, it's clear that the AsusWRT build for this router is years behind other Asus routers, no AiMesh, no adaptive QOS (it has QOS but much more basic than current builds), updating dynamic dns via dnsomatic doesn't work (did on the DSL-AC68U), I could go on. The final straw was that we lost our DSL line for a couple of days and I expected to be able to tether an Android phone to it as backup (this is listed as supported on Asus' UK website), the phone was recognised but the option to pick it as a WAN device for tethering was missing in the GUI. Only after raising the issue with Asus they've replied it's not supported. If you're looking for a high-performance DSL router the DSL-AC88U certainly beats any freebie ISP router for performance, range and features but compared to current routers, even other Asus routers, the DSL-AC88U is years behind, steer clear.
