5 دیدگاه برای “سلام openvpn نیاز توصیه روتر”

  1. Depending on how technical you are, something like the Mikrotik RB2011 can handle most scenarios (though I don’t know if they got OpenVPN working) for bypassing geoblocks with IPSec/PPTP. It lacks 5Ghz Wifi, and is at the upper end of your price range. Plus, it’s a professional bit of kit – you’re going to have to learn how to program it, but once you can are able to do a lot of things you simply wouldn’t be able to on a consumer router.

    For example, I had one set up for “main wifi” with one IP range, which went to the internet as normal. The VPN was connected to a second wifi AP (which was in software only) and sent out to the US for Netflix, as well as port 9 on the front panel. Port 10 went to a different VPN endpoint for the BBC iPlayer. On top of that, various devices were rate limited so as not to eat all the bandwidth, while others were prioritized. Took me quite some time to get it all working, but it was a thing of beauty until Netflix clamped down on VPN access and I had to change tack.

    On the other hand, if you want to go simple, grab a GL-AR300M mini routers off ebay and plug it into your existing router. Does OpenVPN out of the box, handles somewhere over 10Mbps (Fine for HD Netflix, not so great on 25/50/100Mbps NBN plans though). Has a Wifi access point and LAN connection so you can attach a Smart TV/Console/etc fairly painlessly. Cost around $30 delivered.

    If you actually want to run your VPN at crazy speeds for “everything” browsing, then you might be looking at a second hand PC with a chunky CPU, running pfSense or similar. You might be able to squeeze more out of other offerings by disabling encryption, but that may not suit your use case. No encryption on streaming video traffic is fine, but if you are doing other things you want to keep private (such as bypassing web site bans, etc) then that could be a no-go.

    What I have works for me, but if any of the more experienced VPN guru types have ideas on how to do it better, well, I’m more than happy to listen and improve my own network as well. And if I got some of it wrong, let me know so I stop spreading erroneous info.

  2. Not sure how much it is in Aus but the Asus AC86u has a beast of a processor that handles 256bit openvpn at over 200mb. There are maybe 1 or 2 other comsumer grade routers that can do that (as they have the same processor that can handle AES encryption well). Also has a great interface and you can use Merlins firmware to make it even better. I have mine set to router certain devices over the vpn while leaving others to bypass it.

  4. Alternatively should I buy a good wifi network card and setup a hotspot from my computer? Is this a better option and using NAT?
