ASUS Router + WTFast

So I am shopping around for a new router as currently my Netgear Nighthawk (R7000) has been affected by flooding in my apartment.

 

I am looking at the latest and greatest from ASUS (RT-AC5300) as I am now looking to also move.

 

It mentioned that it comes with built-in support for WTFast and a lifetime subscription, but is WTFast worth it and does it make a difference?

 

Should I consider this into my buying decision? I plan to go high end as I am planning to support an entire house with numerous devices strapped to the network.

 

Thanks!
