    Is it a good idea to put 2 Routers side by side?

    OpenVPN vs Wireguard

    WG seems to be more stable on my router than OpenVPN. Speed is always better using WG . With WG clients I often get download speeds of 500 - 600 Mbps. A Open VPN client typically is in the range of 150 - 180 Mbps. In your case TVs connecting probably have just 100 Mbps Ethernet ports...
