The majority of consumer routers are too weak to handle the encryption algorithm that we provide.
If you wish to get better internet speed than 10-20 Mbit/s, we recommend the Vilfo's VPN router.
Connect to your EdgeRouter by typing ssh ubnt@router IP. If you have changed the name of the admin account, use that username instead. Router IP is the IP address of the EdgeRouter. For instance, ssh ubnt@192.168.1.1.
All the hardware used to operate OVPN is owned by us. All VPN servers operate without hard drives as the operating system only resides in RAM.
