Best dual-wan gigabit router that can support openvpn

New Around Here
Ok I have an office in China. As most know they block lots of things and when they don't the DNS poisoning is pretty bad. So the office has two WAN connection and they use a VPN service that using OPENvpn to enable access to blocked sites.

What I want to do is get the office a dual wan router. I want to set on WAN to be on VPN 100% of the time. Then direct all internet traffic for email, filesync, and google searches to be overvpn (that goes back to the USA). All other traffic I want to stay local via the other WAN port.


Any recommendation on the best setup for this? In some of my clients offices I have previously used both sonicwall, Zytel, and Cisco RV08 routers, but at the time most only really did failover. I liked the Cisco but HATE their stupid VPN setup, especially now that most of my stuff using Tomato or DD-WRT for other locations.

Or can you recommend another third party VPN provider (I can VPN to USA offices but don't want run internet search via due to having to keep records off all USA based internet traffic that goes through those offices)
 
You got to stick with what been working for you in your country. DD-WRT shorten the life of your router. So be aware of pushing the router beyond it was made for. You might want to consider buying a SOHO Enterprise Router it seems you have invested into that idea already. VPN isn't the easiest to work with but you got use what they have for the current technology protocols. DD-WRT will help ease that complex setup but I can't recommend anyone using that on their expensive router.

Good luck!
