After a year of operation on a fibre 7 connection, I can only recommend the router.
With the Merlin firmware you can optimally utilise the potential of the hardware.
Advantages of the Merlin FW:
- Greater stability: fixes firmware bugs and improves reliability for WiFi 7.
- Enhanced VPN control: VPN Director for selective tunnels per device (WireGuard/OpenVPN), perfect for privacy and streaming.
- Better monitoring: Detailed traffic analyzer, QoS and bandwidth control for gaming/docker optimisation.
- Add-on support: Compatible with Diversion (Adblock), Skynet (firewall) and custom scripts.
- Fast updates: Community-driven patches, including RT-BE88U support for Swiss networks

We have been using the router with Fibre7 for a few weeks now and everything is working perfectly. Plug in the init7 optics, connect to the OTO socket, done.

Have you already tested the router with fibre7?
I would also like to switch to Init :)
