    Yeah sorry I wasn't aware wireguard could impact the router, I understand if I was connected and using the VPN because the router might be working to process the traffic but not when its static with no client connections Anyway it's not a big issue right now because I use WG in a container on...

    yeah I'll look forward to the new Merlin update with hopefully the fix. Mean while I'll keep wireguard off and use a docker container for that service You can see the dip in performance whilst I resolve the problem, it's very noticeable. The big dip down to 400 MB/s was me running wireguard and...

    Asus RT-AX86U Pro Performance

    The RT-AC86U running merlin 386.9 is much quicker. I can hit and run 118 MB/s rather than the Asus RT-AX86U Pro running 388.1 and 102 MB/s My Grafana dashboards show this constant hit all day long using speed test. Something isn't right

    Asus RT-AX86U Pro Performance

    Trying to max out the down stream and hitting my ISP limit which is good news. Notice the 49% free memory, if I enable SkyNet FW it will be all gone but 20MB and the throughput drops even lower
