loadbalancing VPN's (enhancement) #1577

Closed laandennis closed 3 years ago

laandennis commented 3 years ago

please make an enhancement to support load balancing for OpenVPN with config flags (https://openvpn.net/community-resources/implementing-a-load-balancing-failover-configuration/) maybe this way we can get an higher download speed

Well, this seems to be entirely up to the .ovpn config so you can do this today. Or you can override remote or any other option you want by adding it to OPENVPN_OPTS. Many of the providers do this already. A random example is this ProtonVPN config: https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn/blob/master/openvpn/protonvpn/ch-05.protonvpn.com.udp.ovpn - lots of remotes and remote-random is specified.

Whether or not you have it will depend on what provider you have, and which config you use. And you can always override it if you want.
