I'll check it, but not now, sorry. I am out-of-home.

@Voxel 33 still has an unknown issue with severely degraded / non-existent speeds when using the router VPN. going back to 31 restores speed

out of curiosity, is the issue with the OpenVPN client (your router connects to some VPN provider) or with the OpenVPN server? (for instance you phone connects to your router).

In case of the latter, did you install a new .opvn profile on your phone as well after upgrade?

(.32 moves from OpenVPN 2.5.x to 2.6.x and .32 switches to a new default cipher CHACHA20-POLY1305
So perhaps is it just an issue that 2.6.x doesn't play nice with the AES cipher that used to be the default?

OpenVPN Server. no I have not. I will look at doing that. thanks!

That was it! Thank you so much!
