Encryption is what kills you on VPN.

It requires horsepower.

In it's class the FVS336Gv3 offers the fastest theoretical throughput so it's a good choice but the cons are it's not as feature rich as other offerings in its class. EDIT: VPN throughput is just shy of 80 theoretical. You might see 60, ish.

If you have a relatively new PC hanging around that you can dedicate to the task you might be better served by going with pfsense.

You can get up to 100mbps with a 1ghz CPU, more if you go with a better spec box and PCI-e NIC.

pfsense is open source so you can just download the install and off you go.
