Help with selecting home router

RTFM!

ASUS boot keys for the BIOS are F9 (desktops) or F2/F9/Del (laptops, depending on the model) or F2 (netbook)

ASUS boot keys for the boot menu are F8 (desktop) or F8 (laptops, Esc for the R503C) or Esc (netbook)

... unless you've changed the motherboard?? :unsure:

I tried them all.. Delete, F2, F8, F9, F12, Esc, and a few others.. You can google it, I'm not the only one complaining about the issue.

Yes, seen them all, and in just about every case it's the same problem not understood by the user ... and it's not just on ASUS devices

The function keys serve 2 purposes - as F1-F12 keys and also as a multimedia control (sound, screen, etc). In cases where the function key fails to activate the process, it's because the user has left it in multimedia mode i.e. on my ASUS, F2 can either function as an F2 key or turns the volume down. If left in the volume mode, F2 boot to BIOS just ain't gonna work. No use blaming the computer

(Fn+Esc toggles Fn keys on/off)

As a rule, when wanting to access the function options, I always have a USB keyboard handy at boot up time, forget about the device function keys, you wouldn't know what mode they were last in. The multimedia control option can be disabled altogether in the BIOS

Hmm... I knew the function keys did a bunch of things but I've never used them regularly. My keyboard is as basic as it can get. How does that explain not being able to enter the bios upon boot? I can enter it just find in normal mode, but not when the bios is set to fast boot. Are you suggesting that changing to fast boot somehow changes the function keys?

Why not disable fastboot? Saves basically nothing in terms of actual boot time and just causes issues

I don't think my bios has that option.
