Collection of scripts and links to get your own asus router running on dutch KPN glasfiber internet.
- the cheapest KPN supplied router (KPN Box 12) is very basic in terms of functionality and in my case, extremely unstable (spontaneously rebooting every 30 mins or so)
- privacy: when you use the KPN router your wireless passwords are sent and stored at KPN servers for some reason.
- if you need more than 4 ethernet ports, the Asus RT-AC88U has 8 ports, versus 4 of the KPN Box 12 (not counting the WAN port).
- It's mandatory (as of December 2016) for internet providers to allow the use of your own router, but they are not extremely helpful about it.
- make sure your router is running a recent asuswrt-merlin firmware (see asuswrt-merlin

- in ssh, execute the command

The scripts were sourced from basho's post at tweakers.net, with the following modifications:
- modified the wan-start to automatically locate the router's CPU port (or as stated in the manual, CPU address). This means you no longer have to edit the script, so you can skip that part from Basho's manual.
These scripts were verified to result in working internet plus routed IPTV on:
- novoip: ASUS RT-AC88U, using asuswrt-merlin firmware version 386.3_2
- voip: not tested
