    Are Asus routers with current firmware still vulnerable? The RT-AC-66u is currently on sale. I was trying to decide between it, the D-Link DIR-880L and the Netgear Nighthawk r-7000. I've seen some really good reviews of the Asus but then I found it has some serious vulnerability issues.

    Got an Asus router? Someone on your network can probably hack it
