Premium VPN Router Setup

Use router-level VPN for smart TVs, streaming devices, consoles, work laptops, IoT devices, and devices that cannot easily run VPN apps.

FlashRouters advantage

Why buy the ASUS GT-BE98 PRO from FlashRouters?

The GT-BE98 PRO is premium ASUS ROG hardware. FlashRouters adds the missing setup layer: VPN guidance, optional pre-configuration, provider-specific setup support, firmware decision help, and technician-backed support for real home network use cases.

Pre-configured VPN options

Where standard sellers ship a sealed retail box, FlashRouters can help preset supported VPN client profiles and setup guidance based on the service option selected.

Human technician setup

Get practical setup help for VPN routing, ISP modem/router layouts, dual-router use, smart TVs, gaming systems, streaming devices, and home office needs.

AsusWRT-first guidance

Keep AsusWRT for the cleanest mainstream ASUS path and NordVPN/NordLynx-priority setups. Add advanced firmware requests in order comments when supported.

Purchase path VPN Pre-Config Options Human Technician Setup Advanced Configuration Help Router-Level VPN Guidance
FlashRouters Included / Optional Included Included Included
Standard Retail / Marketplace Purchase Not included Not included Not included Not included

Exact setup options can vary by router model, firmware, selected VPN provider, and service option. VPN profile loading and pre-configuration are service-option dependent.

VPN provider setup

Pair the GT-BE98 PRO with top VPN providers

Use the ASUS GT-BE98 PRO as a flagship router-level VPN setup for popular providers, with FlashRouters guidance for whole-home privacy, streaming devices, smart TVs, gaming consoles, and devices that cannot run VPN apps.

VPN Pre-Config: AsusWRT, VPN Fusion + Instant Guard

The GT-BE98 PRO is a flagship platform for users who want FlashRouters to bridge the gap between powerful ASUS ROG hardware and a real VPN-ready home network. Choose AsusWRT for the cleanest mainstream setup path, NordVPN/NordLynx priority, device-based VPN routing, and remote access options.

VPN Client Pre-Configuration

FlashRouters can help preset supported VPN client configurations before shipment when the correct service option is selected.

  • VPN profile loading / basic client setup before shipment, where supported
  • Supports popular providers like NordVPN, ExpressVPN, Surfshark, Proton VPN, CyberGhost, PIA, and IPVanish
  • Designed to reduce the setup work that standard sellers leave to the customer

AsusWRT + Advanced Firmware Requests

AsusWRT is the default path for most shoppers. Advanced firmware requests can be added in order comments and handled when supported for the selected router and service option.

VPN-by-Device Routing

Route selected devices through VPN while allowing others to stay on the normal ISP connection for banking, work apps, gaming, or local services.

  • Helpful for smart TVs, streamers, consoles, gaming PCs, laptops, and IoT devices
  • Useful for mixed households where not every device should use VPN
  • Pairs well with dual-router and ISP modem/router setups

ASUS Instant Guard

ASUS Instant Guard is separate from a commercial VPN provider. It helps you securely connect back to your home network from outside your home using the ASUS Router app.

  • Helpful for remote access back to your home network
  • Good for public Wi-Fi situations like hotels, airports, and cafés
  • Different from routing home devices through NordVPN, ExpressVPN, Surfshark, Proton VPN, or CyberGhost

GT-BE98U Features

Upgrade your home network with the ASUS BE98U WiFi 7 FlashRouter, the pinnacle of wireless technology. Featuring the latest WiFi 7 standard, this router offers lightning-fast speeds, unprecedented coverage, and robust security features. Perfect for streaming 4K content, online gaming, and supporting multiple smart devices, the ASUS BE98U ensures a seamless and uninterrupted internet experience. Easy to set up and manage, this router also comes with advanced parental controls and comprehensive security protocols to protect your family’s online activities. Elevate your internet experience with the ASUS BE98U WiFi 7 FlashRouter.

  • Ultimate Quad-band Speeds: The ROG Rapture GT-BE98 is designed for gamers who want to keep multiple devices connected and still get incredible gaming performance. Enjoy up to sixteen simultaneous WiFi streams for more video streaming, gaming, and browsing for everyone in your home.
  • Ultrawide 320 MHz Bandwidth: WiFi 7 introduces all-new ultrawide 320 MHz channel bandwidth, doubling data transmission capacity. Think of networking as a virtual freeway and the doubled bandwidth as a doubling of the number of lanes. Now larger vehicles are allowed to get on the freeway and can pack more data than ever before.
  • Dual 10 Gbps Ports: The GT-BE98U’s dual 10 Gbps ports make it a great choice for servers or NAS devices. These are more convenient than simply combining multiple gigabit Ethernet ports, and they help increase your available bandwidth to avoid data bottlenecks throughout your whole network. Users are also empowered to leverage multiple high-speed internet service providers.
  • Future Proof Your Connected Homes: The tri-band RT-BE96U offers 6 GHz, 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz WiFi networking. This solution ensures comprehensive WiFi compatibility for all your devices, from cutting-edge mobile devices to legacy smart home products with long lifespans. With ASUS AiMesh technology, it's easy to combine GT-BE98U with multiple ASUS extendable routers to create a seamless mesh network with rich, advanced features.
  • Revolutionary Multi-link Operation: Multi-Link Operation (MLO) allows a device to simultaneously connect on multiple frequency bands, enabling faster speeds by aggregating bandwidth, with more reliable WiFi connections on multiple concurrently used bands. Connecting to multiple bands in this manner also enables “seamless switching” where your data will automatically be allocated to the most suitable band to reduce latency.
  • High-density 4096-QAM Data Transmission: 4K-QAM can improve data transmission rates versus WiFi 6/6E by up to 20%, because a higher QAM can pack signals more densely. Continuing with the freeway analogy, now higher QAM permits more merchandise to be loaded into every vehicle. In other words, you can now upload and download more data in the same time frame as before.
  • AiProtection Pro: The GT-BE98U router includes AiProtection Pro powered by Trend Micro to help protect your connected devices. It also allows you to monitor your connections, via the handy mobile app.
  • Family-Friendly Internet: Implement VPN on the GT-BE98U to enforce parental controls and filters, creating a safer and more controlled online environment for your family members, even when they are using their personal devices.

What is a VPN?

VPN is an acronym for ‘Virtual Private Network’, historically used by private organizations to seamlessly link geographically diverse locations via the Internet. A VPN ‘tunnels’ traffic between two devices by transmitting it over a secure network. There are also clearly identifiable benefits to individual Internet users accessing a VPN.

  • A VPN provides you with top-level security and privacy for all your Internet downloading, streaming and browsing. As long as you are signed into your VPN account, all data you transmit over the Internet is encrypted.
  • A VPN encrypts your device by hiding the IP address assigned by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and replacing it with the IP address of your choosing from the list of server locations belonging to your VPN provider. This masks your identity when visiting sites that geo-restricted content, and helps you avoid devious local Internet marketing and advertising schemes that track you through your IP address.

Is a VPN Subscription included?

We offer discounted NordVPN 2 Year Standard Subscriptions - routers over $350 include it FREE  and under $350 it is only $40 when you purchase any FlashRouter. 

For all other VPNs, you would need to sign up for one separately, directly from a provider.

Need assistance in finding a VPN Provider? Please visit our recent VPN Provider Listings.

*If you return your router you will be charged the full price of the Nord subscription

Can I change my IP address to on in another country?

YES! The countries that you can change your IP address to depend on the offerings of your specific VPN providers. Prices and server locations vary across all VPN providers.

If you choose to purchase a FlashRouter then you will not have to install any VPN client software on your computer to change your IP address; the VPN will already be configured within the router. Therefore, any device you plug into this FlashRouter is automatically assigned the IP address of your selected VPN server.

Should my FlashRouter replace my old router?

A FlashRouter will work as a standalone router by connecting your modem to its Wide Area Network (WAN) port, or using it in a Dual Router Network by connecting it to your existing router through a Local Area Network (LAN)/Ethernet port. Either way a FlashRouter can be configured to tunnel all traffic through the VPN server of your choosing.

If you would like to set up your Home Network so that some devices are being tunneled through a VPN server, and others are connecting to your Internet Service Provider (ISP) within your home country, then using your FlashRouter as an auxiliary device is recommended.

A FlashRouter will not replace your modem though but can be used along side it.

Will a FlashRouter speed up my connection?

FlashRouters are relatively new models that may enhance data transfers across your home network or extend the range of your Wireless signal. However, the speed at which you download or stream content can not exceed the speed of the connection you pay for through your ISP. Purchasing a FlashRouter or signing up for VPN service WILL NOT transform your regular connection into a high-speed broadband connection.

At the same time, if you do have a broadband connection, a FlashRouter with a VPN connection may slow down your transfer speeds due to the processor encrypting all of your data. In certain cases a FlashRouter with a VPN can also prevent throttling by an ISP of specific service like Netflix or Amazon Video.

Does the service plan renew?

All FR service plans automatically renew on a quarterly or annual basis based on the term initially purchased. A reminder e-mail will be sent one week prior to renewal. In your FlashRouter account panel, you can cancel the plan at any time to stop any further renewals.

Does the service plan include a VPN subscription?

We offer discounted NordVPN 2 Year Standard Subscriptions - routers over $350 include it FREE  and under $350 it is only $40 when you purchase any FlashRouter. 

For all other VPNs, you would need to sign up for one separately, directly from a provider.

Need assistance in finding a VPN Provider? Please visit our recent VPN Provider Listings.

*If you return your router you will be charged the full price of the Nord subscription

Does FlashRouters offer phone support?

At this time, we do not provide phone support with our service plans. We have tested phone support for networking troubleshooting in the past but have found that on average caused us to help less customers in a less efficient manner.

However, with a purchase of a yearly Silver Plan or any Gold Service Plan, customers can schedule 1-on-1 remote support sessions via Teamviewer with our engineers and they will provide a hands-on, personal solution, to any problems you may be facing.

Can I purchase a router without a plan and subscribe later?

Yes, you may purchase a service plan at any time. However, we can’t guarantee any pricing, or apply any previously offered discounts or specific features at that later date.

Do I need a Service Plan for a firmware upgrade?

Firmware upgrades are free of charge to any FlashRouter customer!

You can visit our support center and select your specific router model to upgrade your firmware based on the recommendations provided.

If you want the help of our Support Team to assist in this upgrade, you can always sign up for our yearly Silver plan or any Gold Service Plan and schedule a 1-on-1 Teamviewer session in which our trained engineers will take care of the upgrade for you!

All US customers can choose $20 2-3 Day Express Shipping or get discounted Ground Shipping!

Free US Shipping is also available with the purchase of a router with any Silver or Gold Service Plan.

FlashRouters also offers Flat Rate Shipping to 176 countries around the world using FedEx.

Customers pay customs, duties, processing fees, and taxes (if applicable)
