With regards to powering the router off 12v. According to Asus, the router requires 19v input. That's a really weird voltage for something electronic, and I can't imagine anything inside the router actually requiring 19v... It's most likely a means to deliver more current, using a step-down converter inside the router.
If it were my router, the first thing I would do is try powering it off 12v directly. The built in step-down converter likely outputs 5v or 3.3v internally, it will likely work with 12 as it does with 19. On the off chance plan A didn't work, I would pick up a DROK step-up DC/DC converter, rated for at least 3 amps from Jeff's website and set the output for 19v.
