Premise: I have 1gbit up and down that reaches ~800mbit up/down based on speedtest.net
I did some more serious tests this morning and it seems like I can upload ~760mbit/sec to a friend (has gigabit too) by serving a file with NGINX from my laptop (directly from RAM). I am able to download a file with the same speed from a server. Both have about 5 to 10% cpu usage of my router.
However, when I download a file "from myself" when passing through WAN, the cpu usage skyrockets to 100% and I get 150mbit speed.
It seems like it's a router mis-configuration (or a firmware issue, who knows).
What could help diagnoses the problem?
I'm using an RT-N66U with Asuswrt-Merlin 380.70.
I don't have anything special configured, aside from a couple of open ports and DHCP reservations. I do have the VPN Client and server configured, but not in use.
Hardware acceleration is enabled too.
Any idea what could be causing this?
This is the list of processes running when downloading from my own laptop:
