    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...

    Wireguard VPN Server Halves Download Speeds

    Apologies if this is old news to everyone, but on my RT-AX86U running 388.1 Merlin f/w, it turns out that activating the Wireguard VPN server effectively halves/caps download speeds. By coincidence I had also moved to a bigger tier (1.5G) at my ISP and assumed the problem was with them <insert...
