    trace route shows private IP range after router

    Private IP 1st hop after your router means most likely you have a PPPoE connection. I would say impossible without PPPoE and a public IP (no CGNAT)

    Google may disable your gmail account if you send any email to a .ru domain

    Not sure where to put this. This sections seems to fit the bill. Have a separate gmail account for my car's Android head unit. Because the factory home app is a bit lacking, I have installed and purchased another one from the store...

    Should I enable ASUS DoS Protection

    DoS protection on consumer grade routers coupled with usualy slow internet access is just marketing. Sort of like security in airports. There just to make you feel safer, but in reality does jack squat on top of large queues and unnecessary frisks.

    Router for heavy torrenting ER4, RB4011

    Then RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD-IN will suit your needs with room to spare. I am using lots of RB1100AHx4 and I am happy with the performance (same CPU)

    Router for heavy torrenting ER4, RB4011

    I really do not like TP-Link products, but if you already have the Archer, I would say stick with it. Should handle 1 Gbps up/down with ease. I would be more concerned with the client behind it and make sure it can handle such I/O loads.

    What router can limit Internet bandwidth by Vlan, Ip, Ip range, or Group?

    Sound like you want a Mikrotik router. It has a nice GUI, but you need to know networking to set it up. For extra oomph, if you have a decent server laying around, you can virtualize it with ESXi and a Mikrotik CHR license. (hint: CHR is free with full features for 60 days and the price for...
