    What are my options for enabling WireGuard on RT-N66U

    I am wanting to use the WireGuard protocol for VPN on my home network. I have first tried with OpenVPN, but the speeds were way too slow (around 10 mbps down). Without OpenVPN enabled, I get anywhere between 500-700 mbps down. I have an RT-N66U router and am wondering if that is possible to...

    Upgrade from RT-N66U - Need traffic monitoring

    I've got an RT-N66U that I'm happy with, running Merlin 380.70. What it lacks is useful traffic monitoring and stats.
