ExpressVPN help


Recommended Posts

So much packet loss could be a MTU issue.

 

I set up a OpenVPN server on my XR700 and client here in Asia and found that I had to drop the client side MTU to 1400 instead of 1500.

 

If you open CMD under windows and type: "Ping www.google.com -f -l 1500" and see what you get. If you get fragmentation, keep lowering the number from 1500 until you get a useful value. Then alter the parameter mtu-tun to whatever value you found.

 

One other thing I changed is using TCP/IP instead of UDP. UDP is faster in theory but TCP is more reliable. On long distance connections TCP can be better. But in your case inside Germany I doubt it matters.
