No the asus is the router, I just have a motorola surfboard modem (my own) connected to Comcasts cable.
You can set up to 128 individual firewall rules, can use remote IP, port or protocol. You can also filter sites, keywords, services. For fun I was blocking fox news when my dad was visiting just to annoy him.
FYI the Asus system is basically just multiple routers. Its not the main router and then "dumb" pucks. They basically just developed a mesh protocol that all of their routers work with. You could, in theory, use one of their massive gaming routers as the main one and the others as the nodes. Really all you are doing is installing full routers and just designating the primary and nodes.
