I want MOAR than 6. Please. At least 12.

Why would you need 12? You might consider some PRO router if you need that much 'service'...

Or, just buy an RT-AC56U an add it to your network instead.

Just for trolling purposes. What do I need another router if there are no hardware limitations. It's all about the firmware.

Why create a Ferrari if a top notch FIAT engine theoretically can achieve the same performance...
But you might get a better response when you just ask Asus since I guess this capability is part of the closed source in the firmware.

My vote is to not bother with this, am guessing it would at least involve RMerlin fiddling with the guest network setup screens. And am scratching my head as to what non-commercial router would "need" so many guest networks. My understanding is that guest network users can only access the Internet anyway, what residential installation would care whether there are a bunch of individually-named networks.

Talking about limitations. And quite a good reason...
