too slow speed through wireguard
too slow speed through wireguard
I bought VPS and configured wg-easy, but speed for download is too slow, while speed for uploading is not so bad. Why this might be happening?
My WG traffic looked like a DOS attack to OVH and I got blackholed for 5min, then 15, then 30.
My guess is your provider is rate limiting your UDP traffic.
it looks like provider is not rate limiting:
Having never used this software before, my guess would be your VPS provider is limiting the upload speed of the VPS. The data would be uploaded slowly to you, which means your download speed is limited as the client.
Meanwhile the upload speed is reported as being high enough, since the VPS can download your data at 50mbit/s, as this cap is higher.
But when I tested speed on VPS, using speedtest-cli I got this:
That is likely a speed test server within the same data center as your vps, or they have special traffic shaping rules for it.
Try using iperf from your local box to the VPS and see what speeds you get
Could be an ipv6 issue in which case reducing the MTU might help
Yeah I'd check for fragmentation, particularly coming from whatever was on the opposite end of this tunnel. This looks like librespeed (which is super simple to run in a container, ‘adolfintel/speedtest‘, if interested...I run some at work and it's very useful) so I'm assuming it was running on the server at the other end of the wireguard tunnel?
That latency and jitter are also absurd tho. Op should run a bufferbloat test on both sides. Though I don't always trust those results from librespeed.

You missed OVH and DOS
Have you tried running librespeed on the vps? Librespeed is good if you have a provider nearby. If not it is very inaccurate
Where is your VPS located, and which Wire Guard server are you connecting to?
Romania, and I didn't understand your second question.
You could try headscale instead, which doesn't actually pass much traffic between the VPS and clients (client to client is where the actual data transfer happens).
Or just test out regular hosted Tailscale to see if it will fit your needs.
