Great router. I have the AC 750 and it's been flawless with good Wi-Fi range.

I don't think this will work with FTTC, unless you use it as an additional router behind the one that your ISP supplied.
now the kids are getting older I need one where I can limit the speed per Mac address is that possible with this router.? at the moment its timed so there WiFi is disabled per Mac address after bed time....but is a pain in the ass if they are actually home work late!!

Gavin, you would need to use Qos to limit the bandwidth. Not sure if this router has this but most of them do.

There is bandwidth control section in router settings where you can specify IP range, port range, protocol, priority, upstream/downstream min/max.
For anyone who wants to use it with sky broadband you have to upgrade firmware or it will not work.

Hi,
Tricky part is extracting broadband login credentials. Once this is done it's fairly straightforward to configure and connect.
Below link to a video showing how to get your login and password. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vvmn3xI77Os
Configuration is very simple, you just select your broadband provider (Sky) and put your credentials in.
Like I said before you will have to upgrade firmware to make it work.
