    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    It seems that the WRT1200AC doesn't have a fan, so don't think that would be good for OCing, even though it seems that there is no stable Firmware for that or the 1900AC yet (The 1900AC does have a fan though it seems). I would be willing to step up to the WRT1900AC as it can be found for 150$...

    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    What are your thoughts on the WRT1200AC? I can't really find much on it, but it seems to be open source ready and has really powerful specs for a router that is going for $130 on amazon right now. It seems to be more powerful then the RT-AC68U, but that is just looking at the specs. I could be...

    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    What does the the accelerator chips do? I really don't care about wifi much, just need it for my wifes ipad and my kids phones. I really only care about the patch cable. I'm okay with down grading to 30/5, but in real life i would actually get around 38/7 as actually get around 60/7 now on my...

    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    I'm a little confused now from the replies. So is the AC-56U my best bet then or are there some other routers that have a base 1ghz+ that can be found for around $130 used/refurb. I can get the 68P, but don't really wanna pay that much if you can get the same speeds outof a AC-56U by over...

    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    Does this mean spending the extra money on the 68u isn't worth it if they both of the same clock speed? I don't really wanna get into over clocking routers. Could a 56u do 30/5 with out having to disable my wifi and getting a usb cooler? I could down grade my connection and save some money if it...

    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    Yeah. That is why i was looking into RMerlin as it seemed a bit more user friendly for neophytes. I think that i will go with RMerlin and after a while try out Tomato. Thank you both for the information!

    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    Does the router output the VPN connection via patch cable as well when it is set up and does that use less processing power then having to encrypt and broadcast wirelessly? I've never really messed with routers before and use patch cable now through my old crappy router and would like to do that...

    Best Router for OpenVPN under $130?

    I'm looking for a good router that support OpenVPN with flashed firmware or out of the box etc I have a 50mbit connection and would like to get as close to that as possible while connected to the VPN and using AES128. I was thinking about getting an AC66U, but have heard that the speeds aren't...
