Low VPN performance after switching wireless AP

Post by Sandy-Bridge » Mon Jun 15, 2015 9:43 am

Hello.

I have been running a SoftEther VPN for about a month now and until recently I did not see any decrease in speed while using it. However, a few days ago I got a new wireless AP (Netgear WN3500RP) that increased my speed (while disconnected from the VPN) from 13/11 to 40/50. And now, when I'm connected to the VPN my speeds are halved - I get 25/50. I have tested this on 2 clients on the same LAN, on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 and client versions 4.15 and 4.17 and I have got the same results every time. So, how would I bump the performance up? Thanks.

What does 13/11 or 40/50 mean?

Speeds in megabits per second. 13 Mb/s down and 11 Mb/s up.

How do you measure the speed?
Generally, increasing the number of TCP connection is good for high speed connection.
