I have a question about RouterBOARD 750G r2 (v6.30) and slow VPN performance
The router is setup on a home network with a single network and a vDSL router to the internet.
The Routerboard is setup as an alternative gateway on the network and it routes traffic over the internet via a VPN.
You set the VPN gateway simply by changing the guest gateway IP.
The Routerboard config is a simple PPTP VPN using NAT/Masquerade+Mangling and route tables.
Performance of the links
Straight to vDSL router I get 60Mbps down and 30Mbps up.
Via Routerboard with VPN disabled I get 56Mbps down and 38Mbps up
Via Routerboard with VPN enabled I get 4Mbps 1Mbps up.
Ping times (google) 750ms via VPN. 56ms direct.
I know the performance of the 750 is minimal but is there a better way to route over the VPN?
Also setup on a x86/hyper-V session and only got 4Mbps down and 1.3Mbps up.
Are there better clients than PPTP for performance?
I tried routing by destination (Skips mangling) but still got the same performance
