PPTP: I can get VyperVPN to connect from my 5.20ROS box using PPTP only. The speed is horrible. The pptp-out interface is saying 280kbps while the only download being tunneled is realizing 20K a second. On a windows machine the same configuration and vpn endpoint gets 15mb+. It works on the router, just VERY slowly. I’ve tried all variations of MTU/MRU between router/vpn/desktop possible.
L2TP: No option to specify shared key or cert, just user/pass credentials and server. Stops at dialing… Configured according to vypervpn router->l2tp config page. Using same destination IP as working PPTP fails at dialing, so route shouldn’t be point of failure.
OpenVPN: Two different keys obtained. .crt from the router setup pages at goldenfrog. .p12 from the windows setup page. They do not work as a pair afaik. Router os imports the .crt but gives a no certificate found (6) error when attempting to specify it as the cert to use. I don’t have a .key file, and one isn’t provided (by extension) by goldenfrog. the p12 is completely useless to the router.
Does anyone know how to get PPTP to go faster than an ISDN, or how to get the L2TP or OpenVPN connections to work? I’m not sure if L2TP/oVPN will be as slow, but I want to test them to eliminate the protocol as the speed bump.
Tests are done with routes to local gateway only for destination ips of vpn endpoints tested. 0.0.0.0 route with gateway of vpn service then gets created dynamically after vpn connects to route web traffic successfully. default 0.0.0.0 rule is disabled to prevent local route of default outbound traffic.
