[QUOTE="amirr, post: 991656, member: 85496"] For downloading torrents, I have experienced that OpenVPN-TCP is the answer most of the time. While with Wireguard, I don’t get optimal speeds when downloading a torrent. A commenter said: “I think it should be pointed out more strongly that Wireguard is UDP only. That’s a HUGE drawback if you need to punch through a firewall (if either the client OR server are behind firewall rules).OpenVPN is very much more established than Wireguard which feels more like a hack than something real. Wireguard is essentially just SSH-over-UDP with packet routing. Would you even consider putting SSH directly in the kernel?! Yeah, maybe only the systemd people would.” [URL="https://restoreprivacy.com/vpn/wireguard-vs-openvpn/"]WireGuard vs OpenVPN in 2022: 7 Big Differences[/URL] [/QUOTE]
