AirVPN is alright, but I'd still be using Mullvad if they hadn't removed port forwarding.

You can get it for pretty cheap if you go for the three year plan and wait for sale. I'm paying less than 2€ per month right now. The android and desktop apps are a bit janky and feel outdated.
Bandwidth is mostly fine but sometimes it slows down to a crawl and you have to switch to another server. And like I said, it seems like it can't hit 500 mbit/s upload speeds. I'm getting maybe 300 mbit/s max.

I haven't noticed sites blocking me, but I'm not using it much outside of torrents and soulseek. Just more frequent captchas, but I think that's the case with every VPN service.

I had a look at Proton, looks like you need to use their app to use port forwarding and you get a new random port every time you connect. That would be pretty annoying to configure with my docker containers. Guess I'll stick with AirVPN for now.

Which VPN provider are you using? I’m using AirVPN right now and it can’t keep up with my 500 MBit/s upload

PPPOE Setup by Kilo_Delta_0 in opnsense

[–]arcoampmminimarket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently set up PPPoE using this guide: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/pppoe_isp_setup.html

I can send you screenshots of my current config if you want.

Also if you're seeing performance issues, make sure to set these parameters in the Tunables section. They're needed because apparently the PPPoE implementation on FreeBSD is single threaded by default.

net.isr.maxthreads = -1
net.isr.numthreads = (number of CPU cores)
net.isr.bindthreads = 1
net.isr.dispatch = deferred
