hello, is there any way to implement obfuscation services to open vpn running on top of openwrt? i am looking for a workaround to implement any kind of obfuscation trick to ... trick my isp while using vpn so i can bypass dpi firewalls, and speed throttle mainly, cause i lose like 15mbps while connecting to vpn ... just doing it because want me to be protected from bad actors, nothing illegal or risky... however i am losing almost 70% of my internet bandwidth... have a powerfull arm processor so i am .. just looking to see what can i do..
options in the table are:
obsproxy, socks5, shadowsocks, openvpn over ssl, openvpn over https, openvpn over stunnel, openvpn over... tls ? any tought or idea? found nothing on google..
and why not? wireguard on top of any other wrap obfuscation technology
is it possible?
also heard about openvpn patch with xor implementation, however apparently the patch is very old and with a lot of security exploits.
Are you certain that the ISP is actually throttling your OpenVPN traffic? There is a good chance that this is just due to the router you are using...
Unless you have a very powerful router (i.e. x86 class or with appropriate hardware acceleration for the encryption in use), OpenVPN will tend to slow down the connection
because it is extremely CPU intensive.
What hardware are you using?
ubus call system board
That said, I've personally used shadowsocks to encapsulate OpenVPN... it works, but the performance suffers even more.
Since you mentioned Wireguard -- try that... unless your ISP is actively throttling VPN connections, Wireguard should be far more performant than OpenVPN on the same hardware.
my actual router is a paperweight which throttles vpn traffic up to 80%, , however, had other routher which is a old i5 intel, and got throttled by my isp dpi"ing my traffic so i am trying to find a way to use any kind of obfuscation in openwrt, can you use shadowsocks with oepnvpn in openwrt?? can you please tell me more? i have found nothing! like that in google
my hardware is a cheap mr3420 so i do not use it for vpn for now.. , but i will buy a beefy arm 4 core router so i can run openwrt-openvpn easily without hardware throttle ,also, i cant wireward for now, have read that is the winner because more optimal performant, , is there any plugin to obfuscate openvpn tcp traffic???
