When using the VyprVPN router app, you can expect a loss in speed. Consumer routers simply do not have the CPU processing power to handle the encryption as well as a desktop or mobile device would. Customers have reported download speeds of anywhere from 1-20 Mbps. We typically expect a data transmission speed of 6-10 Mbps over the VPN.
You can expect comparable speeds when using manual configurations such as DD-WRT or AsusWRT.
If you need to connect multiple devices to the VPN and speed is your main concern, our VyprVPN Premium plan allows for 5 simultaneous connections from different devices.
If you find you are experiencing speeds on your router configuration that are below the threshold above, please contact support for assistance.
