    RT-AX86U PRO with OpenVPN has terrible VPN speeds

    I'm using OpenVPN with Merlin 388.2 on my Asus RT-AX86U PRO and only getting 20-50 (on a good day) Mbs. I pay for 300 Mbs and I get that consistently if I use the ISP modem directly with no VPN. When using VPN I connect to servers in North America but am located in Europe. Before buying this...

    Diversion Diversion problems with dnsmasq through VPN interface

    I just upgraded my Diversion version from 4.1.3 to 4.3.3 (I know, quit a leap).
