I've been searching forums and reviews over the internet to find real throughput values from people actually owning devices and do the tests.
I only found assumptions, speculations and guessing. Only seldom I found reliable speed reports by people, especially they always "forgot" to mention which encryption they used. Without encryption parameters, the report is as good as useless.
So my goal here, is people not replying with questions and this and that, but simply report following:
Device - oVPN encryption settings - real throughput minimum, maximum and average.
It would help people to make a proper choice which hardware they want to buy.
Of course, hardware that doesn't support oVPN doesn't belong here. Of course lower encrypted and thus less secure VPN solutions are faster.
So here are some first values:
E2000 - AES 256 CBC - 1,2Mbps, 2Mbps, 1,6Mbps
E3000 - AES 256 CBC - 1,6Mbps, 2,8Mbps, 2Mbps
E4200 - AES 256 CBC - 2,4Mbps, 4Mbps, 3,2Mbps
RT-AC66U - AES 256 CBC - 2,4Mbps, 6,4Mbps, 4Mbps
so who has more values?
I'm especially interested in current high-end routers like the R7000 of Netgear, AC-RT87U or AC-68U and mostly Broadcom based (DD-wrt supported) routers but any other router with oVPN support is welcome of course.
And please, don't start posting assumptions, estimates, etc. If you own a router with oVPN support, and willing to test it, please post here, if not, obviously you are interested in values as well, then simply look and see but don't start chatting and cluttering this thread.
When new values arrive, I"ll update the first post to keep a nice overview.
