Hey, I have to get a new router. Looking at a Flint 4 because things are not costly enough as far as I am concerned. I have heard good things about the Asus Merlin firmware though and was wondering are there any upsides to either worth calling out?

Adguard is how I am selling it to my spouse. We never use youtube on tv despite wanting to because of the ads

Adguard still hasn't fixed TV YouTube ads for me. They inject through a different kind of protocol from what I understand. If you can get Smart Tube on your TV through sideloading (I used Jdownloader on android TV) it will be ad free
