VPN and Netduma resources

[mikehd]

Hi again,

 

If I have the VPN enabled/connected to my provider but no LAN devices ticked to use it, is the connection still consuming computational resources from the Netduma? I would think not since most of the work is the encryption.

 

BTW, your router software has been a life saver in our household. Before implementation my spouse could barely play ESO if anyone else is online, and we now can use Netflix without buffering due to competing house members' usage.

Hi Mike,

 

I doubt it will be using much if anything when nothing is enabled on the VPN page; the hard work only begins once a device is running through it.

 

That's great to hear, I'm glad you're enjoying your Netduma
