6. Product Comparison
(1) TCP packet forwarding performance comparison (Static IP)
The one-way TCP performance of ER7212PC under Static IP dial-up is comparable to ER605 v2, the two-way TCP performance is slightly better than ER605 v2, and the two-way performance of dual LAN/WAN is better than ER605 v2.
(2) TCP packet forwarding performance comparison (DHCP)
The one-way TCP performance of ER7212PC under DHCP dialing is comparable to ER605 v2, the two-way TCP performance is slightly inferior to ER605 v2, and the two-way performance of dual LAN/WAN is better than ER605 v2.
(3) VPN performance comparison
ER7212PC supports IPSec VPN, OpenVPN, PPTP/L2TP and other VPN types, and supports SHA1 and SHA2 encryption algorithms. The IPSec VPN performance of ER7212PC is lower than ER605 v2, but the performance of PPTP、L2TP VPN and OpenVPN is better than ER605 v2. In addition, the ER7212PC's VPN can significantly outperform the ER605 v1.
