I am using merlin 30_2 on an RT-N66U and getting about 13Mb/sec over my 15Mb/sec connection with OpenVPN.
Due to some missing features I wanted to try Tomato and loaded tomato 1.28.0005 109 ND VPN on an old WRT54GSV2 and tested the OpenVPN and to my complete surprise the performance really sucked beyond belief. I was only getting 2.5 to 3Mb/sec with openVPN. That is a crazy drop.
So, question is how much of this can be associated with hardware and how much of it tomato is not performance as well as merlin. I may be comparing here a sports car to Nissan leaf but I am curious...
Would love to hear your experience.
