Valid, but one shouldn’t necessarily trust a signature published at the same place as the file being verified if you’re looking to establish authenticity. If a bad guy can alter the zip, he can alter the included SHA signature as well. Better to have the signature verified from a separate site (like Asuswrt-Merlin.net) since it would be harder to compromise both locations.Look in the zip file you downloaded.
Agreed, but I would like to think it was downloaded from the official site.
Should there be signatures listed for the 384.13_10 models then?There are no downloads on my website. They are stored on Sourceforge and Onedrive. That's why I post SHA checksums on my website, since it's completely separate.

They are gone because my deployment script overwrote them when I released 384.19 (the page is dynamically generated from a data file pushed to the web server on new firmware deployment).
The new website I'm working on has a separate section for EOL models which will list the final hashes for these models, so they don't get overwritten when publishing new releases.
For now, here they are:

The signature contained in the download from sourceforge and the signature returned from a check run from my machine shows "06b7d1d52c81519797cb19d61aa9345a33ce06e5badd4ca5e466cf86eb629cf4" for " RT-AC87U_384.13_10.trx". This doesn't match what you have posted. Am I mistaken some where?
Thats not so good. Doesn't that mean there's no way to prove it come from you and has not been tempered with since the original build?Looks like that hash was from a different build, the one from inside the zip file instead of inside my local build directory shows that 06b hash, and a different build timestamp.
