GL-AR750 high CPU usage

hydn · 2021-06-09T22:03:48.327Z

I have both 2.4GHz and 5GHz wifi disabled. Using it only as a VPN client with a slow 25Mbps ISP DSL modem.

But when we are streaming load averages go well over 1.00, sometimes 1.5+ and sometimes freezes!

This is lastest firmware is installed and nothing changed from default except to add a wireguard profile and to allow remote access.

Is there any tricks to help reduce load. Is it not fast enough for 25MBps ISP?

Thanks guys and gals.

If you use openvpn, it consumes the full cpu power. So pls change to wireguard. Azirevpn is recommend and built-in in the router.

OP quote: “add a wireguard profile”.

Using Wireguard.
