Model: Deco X60  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.2.4

After upgrading to v1.2.4 on my Deco X60 3 node mesh I thought I would dive in and try the VPN Client utilising the OpenVPN connecting to NordVPN. 
 

However I am getting extremely high ping and slow speeds when connected to the VPN. My normal 70mbps connection drops down to 15mbps when connected. I am aware to expect a drop however a drop this much makes it unusable. 
 

Connecting to the same NordVPN server using their app only drops the connection speed by a couple of mbps.

Hi, welcome to the community.

I did see other users have discussed the VPN client speed before the expected speed for the OpenVPN client would be about 20-25m/s. L2TP would be better, about 60m/s.

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/594350?sortDir=ASC&page=15

 

How much speed you could get when using the NordVPN app?

By the way, if the client is connected to Deco via an Ethernet cable to Deco X60, would the speed get better?

Thank you very much.

best regards.
