Mikrotik router that can handle 1 Gbit sit tunnel and Wireguard

RouterOS General

Hello,

Is there any mikrotik router that can handle Wireguard at 1 Gbit and also a sit tunnel at 1 Gbit(not at the same time)?
I have an Edgerouter 4 now, and its pretty slow. And also, I think Ubiquiti has or will discontinue the whole Edgerouter series.

Yes, I could use IPsec with hardware backed encryption, but Wireguard is more stable when there are network problems, so I prefer Wireguard.

For reference I have tried with a Rasperry PI 4 and it can handle about 500 mbit with 35 concurrent connections.

RB5009 is probably your best bang for the buck.

Can confirm both rb5009 and ccr2004 can exceed gigabit wireguard. In my experience Rb5009 tops out around 1.8,gbps and ccr2004 hits 2gbps over wireguard with very basic config. Using iperf to test across tunnel.

Thanks, I ordered ccr2004. I hope the fans aren’t too noisy.:scream:
