Very low speed on OpenVPN
-
I'm getting close to 900 Mbps speed for D/U without VPN. However, when OpenVPN is enabled on the Pfsense router, I'm only getting around 50 Mbps D/U. What could the reason be?
-
@jmartinelli, Pfsense Is Clint Or OpenVPN Server?
don't forget, that your side and side speed must be 900Mbps
-
@silence OpenVPN server
-
Is it a netgate box or diy? What the spec on the pfsense box?
-
@jmartinelli,
So before using the OPENNVPN It has 900 Mbps And when it connects it only has 50Mbps (can you test your speed on the pfsense side too?Example: I have 100 Mbps and my vpn client has 500 Mbps When it connects to my pfsense via OPENVPN (And Measures its speed it has a maximum of 100 Mbps because obviously it is the maximum that I can offer you.
now do you understand me?
-
@silence I do understand - on my home network with no VPN, I'm getting 400/22 for D/U. When I connect to the VPN at work I'm getting 50 max. The ISP line at work is 1 GB D/U - I'm thinking that the issue is with the OpenVPN config on Pfsense - below is the config file any issues here?

@jmartinelli 1GB/1GB ? OR 1GB/50 Mbps ?
-
@silence The Line is 1GB/1GB business line

-
@silence how much improvement would that do to the throughput?

not much but it improves.
If you really want speed, try wireguard
-
@silence I thought that wiregard was dropped from pfsense support (i.e; no longer supported)
