Pros & Cons
Pros
Rt-ax88u is a great wifi router. I have 600 mb up/down plan with verizon and this router clocks speed of 700 mb up/ down in the same floor of a 3000 sqft house. My wife and daughter's wifi signal is now 3-4x the speed (220+mbps) vs. An rt68u.
This new asus router is awesome! The reliability of this thing is amazing. It's a bit bulky but seems like a reliable router so far.
This product is a game changer. No droped signals, no interruptions at all. The processor aka cpu is super powerful.

The user interface is horrible. Your router is a * station and i hate it" reviewer was unable to find support on the company's website.

It is rock solid and trouble free.
I've tested 10+ wifi systems and using two of these meshed together blows them all out of the water.
Price
If it's like new sell it like new with the appropriate discount!
Shipping
On several occasions amazon has sent returned and used items as new.
Packaging/appearance
Looks great in my black office themed room too!
Packaging not sealed, and unable to enter device without performing hard reset to original state.
Competitiveness
With the older router i got less than 40mb/s read and write speeds in comparison!
Since google locked down so many settings (i needed to change the channel the 5 ghz band was on), i bought this router and it i... Read More
However, works exactly as it was intended with much more bells and whispers than netgear.
It also can be set up for two isp providers as well.

The solution for this is to go into to the dhcp ip settings on the dsl gatewayrouter and check to see if it is set for the same ip address range that you are trying to set your asus to

If it matches then go into dsl gatewayrouter and change its dhcp server range
