ER605 site-to-site VPN
Hello! Can the site-to-site VPN in the ER605 take Dynamic host names? I have DDNS on both sites A and B. Thanks.
Also, will IPSec VPN takes too much bandwidth on both sites? Thanks again.

As far as I know, this device does not support mDNS repeater, so there may be no way to implement this.
As for whether the VPN takes up bandwidth, then I think the answer is yes, the data is going out of the WAN port, it is definitely taking up, as to how much it takes up should depend on the real-time VPN usage, viewing files or videos with a VPN is definitely different.

I think @Virgo misunderstand your question.
Yes you can use ddns in both site with dynamic ip when do vpn, no problem
vpn takes as much bandwidth as you use, but take it easy, it's not much on an ER605

do you have any of the sites behind another firewall so you get double NAT? setting up site to site VPN on Tp-Link is quite simple. you can hardly do anything wrong.
make sure the PC is connected directly to the LAN not via another router's WAN and ping the remote site gateway,

Yes, setup was simple. Just fill in the blanks then I took the default in advance settings with site A as responder and site B as initiator. Both logs show "...ipsec connection successfully". Once in a while, they negotiate Phase1 and Phase2 successfully. My laptop is connected directly to the ER605 LAN - BUT I cannot ping the remote ER605's LAN IP address! Not even in the Diagnostic ping in System Tools of the ERf605! Datta Flow is showing correct subnets. In: 192.168.6.1 <-- 192.168.5.1, Out: 192.168.5.1 --> 192.168.6.1.
