Rated 2 out of 5 by from Could be better Rather go for a RT-AC88U with a separate DSL router. Got this unit for parental controls and Ai Protect. Would have been better to have the more developed platform of the RT-AC88U. Can't filter web history on the DSL unit. Latest firmware is aged and won't be updated by Asus. DSL unit can't be flashed with forks of Asuswrt firmware or bespoke firmware (e.g. Merlin or Tomato). Mobile app doesn't work with DSL version either. Getting the DSL on this to work on BT was a pain. On the plus side performance is good.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from dosnt support ai mesh bought this to supplement my existing Asus router with ai mesh, but the AC-88U dosnt support it, which seems strange seeing as its the newest modem router apart from that a good modem

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Great powerful Router however.... As I run a DSL line through BT, I Bought this router since it says it has QoS service settings, upon setting up it became quick to realise it only has half of the QoS features as you can ONLY limit by bandwidth by upload which of course for online gaming isn't enough. Asus said: "Regarding your case, I would like to infrom you that there is a chance this to be fixed in future updates. As for the fuctions, they are limited on the DLS-models comape to RT models, due to the reason that the DSL models have in-build modem." If this router fits your needs then great choice, but make sure you know what you're purchasing and what you want to get out of it first! I think the product needs a section which mentions about QoS as I can't see it as of now writing this review.
