OpenVpn Is Slow

Posted on August 2, 2017

Hi there,

I’ve setup OpenVPN and it is working but the bandwidth is slow. Should I be expecting these kinds of speeds? My bandwidth at home is between 60 - 69 Mbits/s

Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Retrieving speedtest.net server list...
Testing from DigitalOcean (xxx.xxx.xxx.xx)...
Selecting best server based on latency...
Hosted by Tilaa B.V. (Amsterdam) [8.64 km]: 54.708 ms
Testing download speed........................................
Download: 13.16 Mbits/s
Testing upload speed..................................................
Upload: 14.38 Mbits/s

And this is my configuration.

port 1194
proto udp
dev tun
sndbuf 393216
rcvbuf 393216
push "sndbuf 393216"
push "rcvbuf 393216"

cert server.crt
key server.key
dh dh.pem
auth SHA512

topology subnet
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt
push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp"
push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8"
push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.4.4"
keepalive 10 120
cipher AES-256-CBC

group nogroup

status openvpn-status.log
verb 3

I appreciate any advice you can offer.

Thanks
