Quick question
Does the USG or edgerouter support openvpn?
if yes how is the speed like?

My appletv does not support vpn app , which means i will need to rely on the router to do the VPN stuff so that I can watch disney/netflix etc with US content.
My internet speed is now 500mbit and it seems like my ac-68u can't do full 500mbit with openvpn. I think it was only 30Mbit/s when openvpn is on.

Edgerouters does support openvpn. Though none of the model can reach 500mbps. If you rely on vpn, i would recommend to run any x86 based routers. Eg: pfsense/opnsense/openwrt(x86) running on any descent cpu over 2ghz.

I would look into wireguard instead of openvpn, provided that your vpn provider offers it. Wireguard uses a lot less cpu/crypto resources which result faster connection.

pfsense ...hmm steep learning curve but I guess you're right, the fastest I think for home consumer is the AC-86u with its 1.8GHz cpu.
