Hi,

Just a quick question about which router is suitable for my needs, my requirement is vpn (I can install ddwrt or tomato) and a router powerful enough to run vpn 24/7 Speedtest Result with max throughput 130mbps all routers upto now have a bottle neck where I dont get anywhere close to that. I have been looking at

Netgear R7000
ASUS RT-AC68U

Will these dual core routers give me maximum througput for my vpn connection ?

Any help is truly appreciated

Thanks Paul

Unless you're using the VPN tosend files from your remote device to a server in your home network, you're going to be limited by your upstream bandwidth, not processing power.

Download from where to where? Are we talking about downloading from the internet to the router, then using a VPN to send that to a remote device? If so, you're capped at ~5Mb/s because of your upstream.
