Brume 2 slower than Brume 1

It’s worth noting GL publishes WG speeds based on Client mode, Ethernet/Cat-5+ connectivity. VPN Cascading may have a significant impact regardless.

Fluctuations are one thing but only hitting 72% of the Burme v1 is quite another. @blancmange Some tips:

  • I assume both devices are on the most current stable build of the GL firmware.
    • Reflashing stock firmware & only setting up WG Client is also advisable.
  • I assume your VPN/WG provider is already using the closest available server.
  • I assume hardwired, WG Client mode enabled & no other services like AdGuard Home, VPN Cascading, etc.
  • Check via SpeedTest.net, ensuring their closest available server.
    • Run a series, not just a single test & calculate the mode, not just the mean/average.
  • Check via Open Speed Test.
    • Run a series, not just a single test & calculate the mode, not just the mean/average.
  • Self-host Open Speed Test & just removing the whole Public Internet itself fr the equation.
    • Run a series, not just a single test & calculate the mode, not just the mean/average.
