    Layer 4 VPN load balancing for increased bandwidth

    so after tinkering more i was able to cut it down to 84 rules, but with this setup i was getting slightly less throughput than using one VPN server, but experiencing higher loads on the router. I think this might work better if the chosen ephemeral ports were random so 2 rules would suffice. Or...

    Layer 4 VPN load balancing for increased bandwidth

    I also thought source was random but i checked the open ports when downloading and they were incremental (even more weird the ports are always even). Maybe when the same process uses multiple outgoing ports they are incremental and not random. I didn't find anything on changing this behaviour...

    Layer 4 VPN load balancing for increased bandwidth

    Ah ok, good to know, but currently WG is unfortunately no option. I just found out that you can create iptables rules based on source port [ranges] (i'm quite new to this deeply tinkering with networks). First guess was define a rule based on first half of ephemeral ports from the client and...

    Layer 4 VPN load balancing for increased bandwidth

    I don't think CPU power is going to be a bottleneck in the setup, as all the heavy lifting for the OpenVPN should be done by the RT-AX88U and tests show that it is able of 200Mb/s with OpenVPN (also i'm wondering if these tunnels are single threaded as i always see only one core getting over 70%...

    Layer 4 VPN load balancing for increased bandwidth

    Hi all, tl;dr is it possible to combine two VPN tunnels to increase my download speeds with AsusWRT Merlin? The situation: I have a RPI4 set up with NZBGet, which connects to the internet via my RT-AX88U. The connection is routed through a OpenVPN client using VPN Director. NZBGet opens...
