Hi guys
Now upgrading my UK BT Hub2 to an RT-AX86S AX5700, looking at the FW upgrade, will this be an advantage to me in layman's terms from original Asus FW?
Used mainly stream in HD all day literally and gaming Xboxes and pc's mainly over wireless .
I have FTTP gigabit connection.

Here is Merlins feature page,


Here are the addons you can run on it:
