    Gigabit speed possible with VPN on router?

    Public meaning not self managed? Because these are not open to the "public", only to subscribers of the service. But I understand there are many users connecting to the same servers at the same time. I guess unless I can find a VPN provider that can do more than 250 Mbps then the RT-AX88U would...

    Gigabit speed possible with VPN on router?

    Just gave this a shot with my i7 2635QM: type 16 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes aes-256-cbc 62025.49k 67077.36k 69036.03k 70165.77k 70120.79k It says "The 'numbers' are in 1000s of bytes per second processed" so it seems that the AX88U...

    Gigabit speed possible with VPN on router?

    I connected to my closest PIA VPN server and got the following results with my 2011 Macbook Pro CPU: i7 2635QM VPN off/on Wifi: 250 Mbps/150 Mbps Wired: 890 Mbps/110 Mbps Wifi speeds are capped around 300 Mbps since I am on an N wifi adapter (old macbook). Not sure why I got slightly lower VPN...

    Gigabit speed possible with VPN on router?

    Great idea, I will give this a shot once I am home. Let us for a moment ignore the possibility of the VPN provider as the bottleneck, if I were able to get a gigabit VPN provider, what would be the minimum processor needed to decrypt this at full speed? I found this thread on reddit where some...

    Gigabit speed possible with VPN on router?

    I plan to use this router to connect my home devices, laptop for example, to a VPN provider (PIA for example). Since I have a 1Gbps connection I would rather not be bottle necked by the router. If you tell me that providers like PIA can't deliver 1Gbps then I guess my problem is already solved...

    Gigabit speed possible with VPN on router?

    I have a 1000/50 connection and I trying to find a VPN on router setup which will allow 1000 Mbps down speed. My initial plan was to get an Asus RT-AX88U however after reading through the forums it seems this will max out around 200-250 Mbps. I was then leaning towards a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter 4...

    Arris TG3442 + Asus RT-AC86U Possible Setup?

    And what if I leave the laptop on the router VPN? Wouldn't this just create a VPN chain? I imagine performance would take a significant hit here but it could be an interesting solution to create a sort of VPN redundancy. Could be useful if you wanted to use a second VPN where the provider would...

    Arris TG3442 + Asus RT-AC86U Possible Setup?

    Hello, My ISP forces me to use an Arris TG3442 modem/router combo however the firmware on it has very limited options (no VPN options). I would like to use OpenVPN on the router so I have decided to go for an Asus router running Asuswrt-Merlin. I am however concerned how the two will interact...
