200mb/s is the max rate to expect with a OVPN connection with your router. Which is outstanding really, compared to others.

I’ve seen up to 275Mbps, but on selected servers only and not every time, with NordVPN.
 
Max i've done on Express VPN with my router is 200mbps.
 
VPN client download speeds tend to vary more than just a straight WAN connection. Just more moving parts. ( See screen shot below.)

Also IMHO given the economics of the commercial VPN providers they really can't afford to offer higher speeds for $3 - $7 per month. If your getting 200+ Mbps downloads that is good as it is going to get currently.

To prove to yourself it isn't a limitation of your router (assuming it supports AES-NI) install a VPN client from your VPN provider of choice on a PC wired to your router, turn off the VPN client on the router and run a speed test.

Because your own router does something your ISP router doesn't, perhaps? Disable all TrendMicro components on the ASUS router, all User Scripts, all USB services, etc., turn it into a straight routing device and test again. You purchased the ASUS router to be able to do more things on it, not available in ISP router, I guess.
 
Here are some recent VPN speedtest results on my 86U connected to PIA using AES-128-GCM.
