RT-AXE95Q slow OVPN

dima

New Around Here
I have recently purchased Asus ET8/RT-AXE95Q and installed latest Merlin 3004.388.9.2-gnuton2.
I am happy with everything except for OpenVPN speed when connected to Surfshark. On a 300Mbps WAN I am getting only ~40 Mbps with OpenVPN UDP and even less with TCP. For comparison, the same Surfshak location gives me ~280Mbps with Wireguard.
What could be the reason? The CPU load doesn't seem to be that high with OpenVPN. I would happily stick to Wireguard but YazFi only supports OpenVPN.
 
Well known issue. Have a search for wireguard and OpenVPN in the forums and under security. Some guidance as to what routers to use for openVPN.
