Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 1, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 1, 2019 This is expected behaviour when running the VPN through the router. To help with this I would suggest you select the closest server to your actual location (if possible) as well as utilising the Hybrid aspect of the VPN and just applying it to the specific services/applications needed thereby allowing the rest of the device to use your normal connection at regular speeds.

Fuzy Posted June 1, 2019 Author Share Posted June 1, 2019 Okay ! But I was scared when using the service it does not work for real protection! In the meantime I'm ironed on my old firmware with the DHCP60 V.32 option that does not have the VPN hybrid ... pending an update or V.40 version with DHCP60 option! Regarding the consoles put with the VPN hybrid why do not we have the opportunity to simply use the services? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 1, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 1, 2019 Yes it should protect you just fine, would suggest inputting the VPN DNS into the network settings as well to be safe. Understood, we have contacted Netgear to try and get a firmware version for that. It's to do with how the consoles handle traffic, encrypted traffic would be the easiest way I could explain it but it's not encrypted per se.

Fuzy Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 if i use App NordVPN on my PC what is the solution to joint the login page of XR500 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Alex Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I think you'll need to disable the VPN to log into the interface. It may be possible to add some kind of exception into your VPN software but that would vary from software to software. The problem is that the VPN sends your traffic outside of your local network, and so trying to connect to a local IP from outside of your network isn't going to work.

Fuzy Posted June 4, 2019 Author Share Posted June 4, 2019 I Know ! I tried with remote management but I do not have the ping-ping auto application that allows me to know my ping and geolocation of the server ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Alex Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I looked it up online, maybe this guide will help: https://blog.lan-tech.ca/2013/02/21/access-local-and-vpn-network-simultaneously/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive only just set this up (VPN), and am already bothered. My internet speed is 1000Mbps down/40up. When I run xbone thru the xr500 I get, about 300Mbps, which of course is way more that anyone needs, yet when I turn on the Hybrid VPN (express) I get 26Mbps. Thats 26. Seriously. 26. Im going to keep toying with it of course but at first glance this seems a little ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 15, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 15, 2019 I don't think you'll be able to get much more unfortunately but some things I could suggest are: Connect to the VPN using UDP instead of TCP Select the closest possible server to your actual location Disable QoS in Anti-Bufferbloat options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzy Posted June 15, 2019 Author Share Posted June 15, 2019 The problem comes from OPEN VPN ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 15, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 15, 2019 I don't think it's OpenVPN specifically but that will be part of it, I believe it's mostly down to restrictions on the router. Have you tried the above suggestions to see if speed can be boosted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzy Posted June 15, 2019 Author Share Posted June 15, 2019 YES ! ok the problem come from XR500 ? LOL ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 16, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 16, 2019 It is a combination of OpenVPN not being the fastest protocol and restrictions due to R-App utilisation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
