WireGuard or OpenVPN

[008800 0]

Hi, I’m setting up AirVPN on a router (OpenWrt) and trying to decide between WireGuard and OpenVPN.
I’m mainly looking for the best performance and stable connection.
What are your experiences with both on routers?

Wireguard is faster than OpenVPN less overhead, really depends on you openwrt hardware

I have both set up on my dd-wrt router. Wireguard is way faster, and its connections are more stable. With OpenVPN I end up changing servers due to performance issues multiple times per week, but that's really rare with wireguard. Seems to handle a loaded server better.
