Hi I've seen that in router DB are present several Asus model but in specific RT-AC86U not. Did anyone know if it works ? Thanks.

RT-AC86U is not supported. Check out Asuswrt-Merlin for a modified stock firmware.

Broadcom device, identical to the 68U Extreme, both are not supported AFAIK and I wouldn't recommend trying to flash the 68U firmware image.

Currently, only AsusWRT-Merlin supports this device. Probably wouldn't be difficult to port, but official support may not come at the drop of a hat.
