I'm using a TP Link W9980 without any problems. Only got 38/2 and my house isn't that big though.

But apart from that you've completely answered the OPs question

To get the WAN to LAN throughput needed the router should support hardware accel for PPPOE. Some of the earlier ASUS routers had a flaky implementation which I think the later ones overcame.

He asked for FTTP suitable routers. That is one that he can consider, keeping in mind that his needs are slightly different to mine.

Do you think your router will support his requirements given his connection is 10 times faster than yours?

It supports 300Mbps, yes.

Supporting wireless at a nominal 300 Mbps is not the same as supporting 300 Mbps of traffic from the WAN to LAN or LAN to WAN sides of a router.

Sorry if I've created an argument without realising! I'm going to experiment a little, first stop being an AirPort Extreme. The ONT is in the garage and there are 2 runs of Cat6 to 2 rooms downstairs at opposite sides of the house. Just going to move the AE around and see what the signal's like running in bridge off the HH5 and also on its own running PPPoE. Could end up with a 3 AE system with 2 extending the wifi blanket at the ends of the Cat6 but who knows??
