One side note.

As best I can tell, with ExpressVPN, in most cases it uses its proprietary protocol, which is a variant of Wireguard, and may be faster than OpenVPN.

in the case of the tests I ran, the Deco VPN would be OpenVPN, and the iPhone would be the proprietary protocol.

Hi  @Mbauer5 

Thank you.

I have the same downspeed as you on my Apple Tv with VPN only active on Apple TV.

As I understood the downspeed is limited to 20 Mbps for now but will be adressed with future updates.

  @Mbauer5 thanks for the stats Mark, looks great for you.

I havent tried this optimised version yet, been busy with work. I'll test it and post some stats.

When the VPN client didnt reconnect and you had to reboot the router, how long did you wait before doing the reboot?

There should be a cleanup section that removes the previous IP Tables entries.

I'll also test that, if I see the same i'll check the logs and see whats going on.

Hi Ian,

I didn't time it, but I waited pretty patiently, I would guess 5-10 minutes. I took this as both a very small bit of bad news, and also more good news, as it implied my VPN connection had stayed up for several days before I turned it off.

I'm glad to do a more scientific test on the timing if that would help.

Thanks,

Mark

Hello,

I had many questions staring at my own data.

1. what effect did OpenVpn versus Lightway/Wireguard have?

2. is the cpu speed of the router a factor?

3. I don't know if ExpressVPN gave me a TCP or UDP profile, and does that matter?

Thanks,

Mark
