Model: Archer A7  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version: 1.0.15 Build 20200721 rel.40773

I think we should start a discussion about upping the OpenVPN protocol because it's currently deprecated, as well as possibly adding Wireguard support in the future. It's an Open Source VPN protocol just like OpenVPN but it's built for speed and extra security. I see adding it as an addition to an updated OpenVPN protocol, as well as the current PPTP protocol would be a wecome upgrade. How does anyone else feel?

@Lonk Wireguard 1.0.0 is now audited, released and included in the Linux 5.6. Time to get this protocol going!

But I'm obviously in support of updating the version of the OpenVPN protocol first since I get warnings that it's too old from my VPN Clients.

@Lonk 

 

We can certainly forward this suggestion to our developers for consideration.

 

Thank you.
