The router's CPU is used to encrypt and de-crypt the VPN connection, routers with slower CPU's simply don't have the processing power to output a good VPN through speeds, so buying a cheap router even if it supported by 3rd party firmware is simply a waste of your time & money. That's a Fact!

Processor (CPU) Power And RAM

Processor and RAM are the heart of your router’s performance. A router with a powerful fast CPU processor is essential for handling the encryption and decryption of data that VPNs require.
Look for Routers that have a fast CPU and ample RAM to ensure smooth performance, especially if you’re streaming in high definition or gaming online.
Why it matters: VPNs, especially high-speed ones like Surfshark, require a router with enough power to keep up with the encryption process. Without sufficient processor speed or RAM, your internet speeds will suffer!

Recommended Router spec for your line speeds:

1. 10Mbps to 80Mbps - FTTC (Fibre To The Cabinet).
   A router with a minimum CPU clock speed of 1.0GHz up-to 1.7GHz is recommended for good fast VPN Throughput!
    
2. 80Mbps to 2200Mbps - FTTP (Fibre To The Premises Aka - Full Fibre).
   A router with a minimum CPU clock speed of 1.6GHz up-to 2.2GHz is recommended for good fast VPN Throughput!
    

The NEW Wi-Fi 6 DYNALINK WRX36 DD-WRT FLASHED ROUTER, fastest CPU @ 2.2GHz, (coupled with a WireGuard Client from Surfshark or a VPN provider that supports WireGuard on a Router), is highly recommended for all customers with fast line speeds or customers wanting to future proof! Currently (2025) this will give you the fastest throughput from any Router we sell !!
