#PFSENSE TORGUARD INSTALL#

Question for you on pfsense - vpn connactivity is a single thread process correct? If so, what would you suggest for the hardware requirements of a machine running it (ram, clock speeds, does it need a dual NIC)?Īlso. Thanks egc, cant find a way of moving this to a different forum but will keep this in mind for next time.

'Thanks, this is the average speeds we seen on it, with Asus GT-5300 we seen speeds up to 120mbps, else for higher speeds you need a desktop with strong cpu and install on it pfsense firmware to use it as router.'Ĭan anyone comment on the validity of what these people are saying? What are people with fiber or similar connections use for a vpn (hardware / service)? I had asked them to recommend another router and their final response read: a sincere question - are they pulling my leg? Is it really true that this device with its dual core 1.8GHZ CPUs simply cannot handle the enormous task of encrypting / decrypting a VPN connection at higher speeds? The next response out of them was that this was normal for the router and that it will bottleneck at roughly the speeds I am getting. They had me change connection settings, ports, servers and protocols and eventually asked what router I was using: Linksys WRT3200ACM running DD-WRT v3.0-r41771 std (12/21/19). Having had this go on for a few days and being off work today, I spent the last few hours with the strangely helpful support staff at torguard. Well, not so much - the moment the main router is connected to the VPN (server is local to us - maybe 20 or 30 kms away), the download speeds drop to ~70ish, so not so good. Recently our home cable-internet service got a significant upgrade (seeing around 450mbps down on ), this is up from the 80-90 we were getting before so all good right?

Interested in getting some opinions on whether or not Torguard VPN is just pulling my leg. Posted: Mon 14:33 Post subject: Torguard VPN question
