  • Is this possible with Wireguard/oVPN?

    I think you need VPN director from Asuswrt Merlin https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng/wiki/VPN-Director

    Not an answer, but I have the AC5300 and like it. And if you're not aware, there's open source firmware for a lot of the Asus routers here. I use it and once again seems fine. Disclaimer, I'm not a power user, so probably can't answer anything more specific about VPN setup on the router itself, but from my understanding it is possible.
  • ASUS Merlin and VPN Director - Route LAN traffic through WG site-to-site VPN and WAN traffic through OVPN client
    1 project | /r/ASUS | 17 Nov 2023
    However, I am struggling with how to route the site-to-site client's WAN traffic through its own OVPN client connection. If I set up a rule routing all client subnet traffic through the OVPN connection, then the Wireguard rule never gets processed, because all OVPN rules are processed before any Wireguard rules.
  • OpenVPN Modem/Router

    Many (all?) of the ASUS routers supported by the Merlin firmware https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/ have OpenVPN built-in. If you have an ISP-provide modem/router, you may be able to put it in transparent bridge mode.

    However, it looks like only the older model is on sale. Go for the Asus and do research if you want Merlin or not.
  • Does merlin support Asus AX RT55 router?

    If you are somewhat good with computers, get an Asus router with a broadcom chipset that can run Merlin WRT. They are rock solid and feature packed (you can even adjust the wireless power level, since you're having wifi issues). There's a list of supported routers here: https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng/wiki/Supported-Devices

    Asus may be terrible in other parts of the company, but they're good in the wifi router department because they cooperate with their users to produce a better product: https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/
