So both LAN:s use the same type router now. Same setup regarding OpenVPN Client on the router where I push settings using the ccd file on the server: iroute 192.168.117.0 255.255.255.0 #Disable compression and push it to the client comp-lzo no push "comp-lzo no" #Set different cipher for the ASUS router client cipher AES-128-GCM push "cipher AES-128-GCM" The Internet connection is running at 250/250 Mbps verified using Ookla Speedtest (I have had big problems with the ISP regarding upload speed but that was fixed 4 days ago). With this in place and using an nfs share across the VPN tunnel I can upload a video file from the remote site to my home site as follows: video.mp4 file size: 283,190,409 bytes Command for copy: time cp -p video.mp4 <destination dir on nfs share> Result: real 0m12,823s This calculates to 283,190,409 * 8 / 12.823 = 176.7 Mbps!!! So this shows that the speed obtained is about an order of magnitude faster when switching from RT-AC68U to RT-AC86U router. Same type of transfer using the old router took minutes to complete. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users
