Hi all,

Recently upgraded to the Deco X50 as I have a need to connect multiple devices on my home network to the same VPN. 

However, the speed when the VPN is connected on my Deco system is VERY slow. 

 

I am using an openVPN connection to a VPS. 

 

Two use cases and results:
 

  1. Single device on VPN, running the VPN on that device, yields speeds as expected (circa 100Mb)
  2. VPN to same VPS on Deco, much slower speeds (circa 10Mb)

 

Why would this be? Has anyone experienced this before? 

 

I'm wondering if the X50 is just too low powered to support it?

 

Thanks,
Andy

Hi, Does the VPS VPN server support Wireguard VPN protocol?

If yes, it is suggested to set Deco to connect VPS VPN server via Wireguard VPN, instead of OpenVPN.

 

Thank you very much and wait for your reply.

Best regards.
