    My country censors the internet; Does a VPN client work well on dual wan setup?

    Hi My knowledge of networking is limited. I apologize if my questions sound immature. About four months ago, I bought an RT-AX88U, and I love this router. It's easy to set up and works reliably. I live in Iran, and the internet censorship is horrible here. Because of that, we use VPN. I have...
