Merlin firmware supported on: acrh13 ac1300 2x2 mu-mimo

hello, this is a purchase recommendation for my sister for her small New York apartment.

I have an ac87u with the latest Merlin firmware.

This arch13 model looks perfect for my sister.

This mode does not seem to be listed in the supported routers list for Merlin firmware.

Also I would like to be able to remotely tech support this router for my sister.

Does it have the same base firmware as the asus routers like the 87u that I am familiar with?

It has good reviews on Amazon.

It's an Asus router with ASUS WRT so the features will be familiar.

The only supported models are listed on Merlin's page , the arch13 model is not included.

wikidevi says it's the same at the RT-AC58U. This is reinforced by the manual that @Sanna1967 linked to which has "RT-AC58U" in the footer of each page. Therefore it won't be compatible with Merlin's firmware.
