Dogsh*t. Once you are doing serious virtualization you don't use intel. You go mellanox. No wonder nvidia just bought mellanox. Melanox 40/100G blows away intel. Intel is OK for 1 and 10G, but that's it.

LOL. A 1Ghz dual core is definitely too weak to run proper antivirus software and most likely it will only detect it if it can see inside the traffic, which is not the case for encrypted traffic, e.g. malware that comes in through https sites.

OK, are you talking about HW network acceleration or HW crypto acceleration? Most embedded crypto accelerations I know do not speed up openvpn as the overhead that is involved to transfering data to the engine and back is slowing down things, most embedded hw crypto engines are optimized for...

No idea, but it easily routes 1Gbps, thus not sure what you need hw acceleration for.

But Hnyman’s builds also have broken qos, the results on http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/ is really bad, there is a huge difference between kong and hnyman build.

Best qos, I have ever seen is on r7800 kong openwrt build with cake sqm, forget about qos,streamboost and everything else. Voxel as well as stock both gave me bad results.

Which browser? I think Chrome acts up when a self signed cert is used with https. If your unit has direct internet access you can use the ACME service in order to pull a cert from letsencrypt. Or as murtaza said try without https.

Kong just announced an openwrt build for the R7800/7500v2. As far as I can tell no latency issues + great wired/wireless throughput. It also comes with a cool theme that is not included in official openwrt releases. See dd-wrt forum: https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=319330

Same issue on the XR500, it is a wifi driver issue and they all come with the same driver, but for me it was fixed with latest kong dd-wrt build.

You should probably test latest kong dd-wrt it gives A+/A+ with fq_codel now and is able to do 1Gbps on 5G with measured with wifi.

DD-WRT has fixed all of the issues in their 4.9 kernel, now this unit kicks some butt, OpenWRT is completely behind. It use whatever qos works and SQM on OpenWRT just doesn't get close to the results that I get with DD-WRT.

That's complete nonsense. The R7800 OpenWRT maintainer gave up on this unit a long time ago, as he couldn't fix a few really bad issues, while DD-WRT has fixed all of these known issues. Performance/Latency is way better with DD-WRT. DD-WRT was also the first project that added support for it...

This is bullsh*t, I looked at the GPL release, this is the same base firmware from qca only branding and a few extra modules e.g. for qos added. Regarding qos, a R7800 with kong mod, outperforms the XR500 with it's qos. The R7800 is one of the best selling products, because you can flash...

Cloud based management would be cool, in case the device can also be managed standalone, e.g. when connection to cloud fails and it should allow to completely disable cloud based management, for security reasons and if the device has no internet access.

No they did not create the OS/FW etc. The GPL release holds the same basic openwrt based firmware from the R7800, it just adds a few binary modules. + extra webif code, that's it. This feature is a simple as other firmwares had for years, e.g. dd-wrt with it's qos rules that are based on ndpi...
