    VPNMON VPNMON-R2 v2.0 -Jul 10, 2022- Monitor your VPN connection's Health (Thread locked/closed)

    Hi @Viktor Jaep , this seems a very very nice project, congrats! I'm using Surfshark VPN, and I was looking for a way to daily switch to fastest server (as well as whitelist it on skynet). Any way of doing this with your script (vpnon or vpnmon) even I have to do some changes? Would like to...

    Question: Are openvpn CA keys generated on first boot?

    Hello guys, Title says all. So, after flashing a new build I noticed I have new CA\Server Keys in OpenVPN, so, the router doesn't keep the previous keys. My question here is, are these new keys built-in the new ROM image, or are they generated in first boot, and unique per each device? Thanks

    AX88U v386.2_6 - Guest WIFI SSID breaks WAN connectivity

    Hello again, You are right, I've done a clean install first, just like referred in the link you shared. Thank you, saved. The issue "changed" but there is still a bug. So, let me detail the steps: I've configured the basic wifi 2.4 and 5g SSID with smart connect, and then two guest networks...

    AX88U v386.2_6 - Guest WIFI SSID breaks WAN connectivity

    Hello everyone, Finally, I'm able to reproduce a bug that pretty much happens in every 2021 release for AX88u. I wasn't able to pinpoint it, so I was using an old version (from more or less one year ago). I have an SSID for 2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz with the same name, lets say "MYWIFI", without WIFI6...

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Hi, just use a high port in these settings. Then, when you download the openvpn configuration, the new port setting is built-in. The wan interface also gets the inbound-NAT automatically done, meaning, you don't need to configure port forwarding.

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Hello, I've never been able to totally fix the issue. For now I received a new ax88u so my ac88u is stored. Using exactly the same setup scenario, I'm getting 4MB/s in VPN instead of 0.7MB/s, and the wired clients do not lose connection when I'm testing (similar to your issue). It's a really...

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Nop, no errors this time with this configuration. I've changed to: no control channel encryption, AES-128-GCM forced encryption. Results are: Little improvement from 650kb/s to 900kb/s (but still bad since its 20% versus a 4.5mb/s in direct transfer using the same ISP\machine scenario) No...

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Alright, still have issues, but here's the debugging per suggestion: @elorimer - I ruled out the compression to "none", still happens a cap <20% @eibgrad - I tried 2 ISPs, and even tried using my 4G network. Same values (even in mobile, it's stuck at 650kb/s approximately). @MaziahBebop - Np...

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Hi Merlin, thanks for the tip. Not considering it, i have set LZO to "no" in the last test above. Do you think it's a normal overhead? To drop from 4.5mb/s to 0.7mb/s? Something is not making sense to me. The router is not overheating, I have no issues in the logs.. :| Will try some minor...

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Good question, I noticed that also, TBH the only thing I found about IPv6 was the IPv6 Firewall, which I now disabled.

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Ok guys, so, everything is stable now, unfortunately the bandwidth is still about 20%. I've checked the temperature and it's always around 87ºC, in the top command, the openvpn server takes around 25% of one core. The speed is always capped around 700kb/s when without VPN using a direct IP...

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Hello everyone, sorry it took a while to be able to reproduce de exact same scenario, but now I have everything ready and I can test it whenever I want, so, now I can try to find the problem. So, I've switched to TCP and compression to LZO-Adap. Result: 1. 1,5mb/s cap, never really got into...

    Hello guys, First of all thank you for your very fast attention on this. This is sign of a healthy community supporting this project :) Let me iterate over the several points mentioned: Default port -- the screenshot was "sanitized", I use a (very) high port Use user\pass only -- thanks for...

    OpenVPN issues on AC88u using latest 384.19

    Hello all, I wonder if anyone's noticing a problem with the openvpn connections using merlinWRT as the openvpn server, and I'd like to know how to fix this. I'm using AC88u with latest 384.19 and the issue is that VPN becomes extremely slow (down to like 50k/s instead of 8MB/s) after using it...
