Some years ago I configured my first VPN using first an ASUS AC86U and then I replaced it with an AX88U. I decided to use these models because I read (probably right in this forum) that those 2 models support the AES-NI encryption that is needed to speed up the VPN server. Now I need to configure a new VPN at my new place where I have a gigabit connection. Is it still important to have a router supporting AES-NI encryption? Which models do you recommend?
