Hi so my parents ISP provided a wifi repeater I have in the photo, they have the default router and wondering if this extra router (Asus RT-AC68U) i have would work better?
I have changed the firmware on it to work as a normal router, and would this work with the repeater by default or would I need to do something extra?

Lol all that does is put voltage over coax. Item shown is not any type of access point . Modem or router.
they’re both AC1900 devices. so unless you can get the Asus to work in more of a mesh-mode where one of it’s antennas are dedicated to the upstream/backhaul side you won’t see improvement. NOW, if you can, say with DD-WRT (check your version: https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Asus_RT-AC68U) then you should be able to get “full duplex” out of it as a repeater, because now it’s a mesh-node not a repeater.
