Questions about ASUS RT-AX86U Pro

Thanks for the tip! If an external promotion accepts our proof of purchase, you are of course very welcome to use it. I personally also enjoyed Starfield, great promotion.

The router supports WireGuard VPN, including use with Proton VPN, provided the firmware has been updated to version 3.0.0.4.388.23000 or higher. This allows you to set up and use WireGuard as a VPN client or VPN server. Proton VPN also provides instructions for setting up WireGuard on AsusWRT routers, which include this model.

This is the same product, only our suppliers are different.

This secondhand products is a private sale. The price is set directly by the private seller and advertised on our website.

The RT-AX86U Pro has no specific buttons on the side for switching the Wi-Fi on and off. Instead, there is a WPS button and a reset button on the device. The Wi-Fi can be controlled via the web or mobile app.

The ASUS RT-AX86U Pro router has a single 2.5 Gigabit port that can be used for either inbound or outbound, but not both at the same time. This means that when connected to a high-speed Internet service, you can achieve 2.5 Gigabit speeds for either inbound or outbound traffic, but not both at the same time.

Ja, 1m Cat 6

If you want to set up a VPN server your Swisscom box may be able to do this on its own already, as per the other reply here. This Asus router is also able to do this, but then it's best to set your Swisscom box to bridge mode (if this is possible) so your Asus VPN server is reachable from the outside. If you want the Asus router to connect to a VPN server elsewhere (VPN client), then the answer is yes, it is possible, even if it is behind a Swisscom router which is not in bridge mode. I use it for this purpose myself.

No, you can't. The ASUS is a router and not a modem.

Of course in principle it should work if you can setup the Swisscom/Wingo box just as a modem (not a router). I have Sunrise/UPC and it hasn't been a problem.
