Hello everyone I purchased a Linode VM just for a VPN out of Atlanta GA and for some reason I am seeing double my ping times.. Not sure whats causing it was wondering if you all could have a look at some of my testing here.. Below is the post where i posted this

https://forum.linode.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=15606

Looking forward to everyone's thoughts on this thanks!

I have some issues with routing my vpn services to linode Atlanta Hub I am using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and I followed these directions https://www.digitalocean.com/community/ ... ntu-16-04 at the moment i have things working but question if I can play around with the MTU settings and what exactly should i set it too?

Here is currently what i see from my home to the Linode server
Code:

So why is it i have so much latency while connected up to the vpn?? Is this an MTU issue? The only thing this server is doing is providing me with a vpn as a test I already rent a server from So You Start and it does the exact same thing.. I am using 443 for the vpn and tcp instead of udp.


Is it possible that maybe Linode is routing vpn traffic differently?
