I'm currently running WireGuard inside a Debian VM. Everything works ok, but I'm planning to migrate it to a dedicated machine (an old laptop or a Raspberry Pi to save some power).
Now the question, my Asus router has preinstalled some VPN servers including WireGuard. I should run it on the router? It has a nice interface and also it's available in Asus's mobile app. But has some limitation, for example it allows only maximum 10 clients (not a problem for me) and I can't setup the server URL (I'm using the DDNS from my IPS and the router is not aware of that, I think that I need to use the Asus DDNS). But I'm afraid that running a VPN server on the router would affect the network's performance - downloading large files at 5G speeds on my phone when connected to VPN puts a high load on the server.
