    Help with Asus RT-AC86u

    Thanks Well as I understand it, they do not allow you to just use the modem, but I might be wrong.

    I suppose there maybe some small changes made to address the bad reviews And yes, but there is hardly any info on Toby website Cheers, do you know of any similar routers that are good for vpn clients. I was looking at ubiquity Edge Lite but it seems you can only load one VPN config in to it
