Yeah give that a go. Glad to help ๐Ÿ™‚

Ok in that case. The goal is to use a cipher suite that works well on your device that is still secure. AES is accelerated on most processors these days. But you'll want to confirm that by looking up your specific cpu (both host and client machines!) and checking for AES acceleration.

AES-128-GCM would be my suggestion.

UDP mode provides less overhead, so it should be faster for you.

Alternatively you could use IPsec instead of openvpn but that's a chore to configure. But it has the benefit of being free and being natively supported by many devices.

You would still want to configure an appropriate cipher suite that's fast and secure.

You mentioned that your cpu is getting maxed out on wireguard. That makes a lot of sense since it's generally not hardware accelerated, old low end CPUs could struggle here.

What choices do you have for protocols with your VPN software?

Try AES128 UDP mode with openVPN.

Yeah I just won't buy that brand and if it turns into all of them. That's when I dust off my jailbreaking hat and never buy new again.

Well you see, it's used by virtually everything. So get used to it. is all I imagine people saying, not my opinion.

They never fixed unity's networking on PC and quietly shut down the servers. Dick move.

The biggest problem is that devices that aren't battery powered will reboot.

Ideally you would have each port on its own isolated bus.

If you need a lot I believe StarTech or CDW can work out a shipment.

They already sell phones over 1k that are expected to last ~4 years. You'll need to tag another zero or two to that price to incentivize manufacturers.

We need regulations that prohibits such actions.

We already have patents to protect companies, they don't need to keep their software and schematics secret.

Now you just gotta post that stuff to the DCS forums.

Anyone else surprised to see united states on the list?
