I current have a Apple AirPort Extreme router and I'd like to run a dual router setup and add a DD-WRt router for my VPN.

At the moment my speeds wireless without VPN are 90-110mbps. When I connect to VanishIP via app I drop down to 15MBPS.

Would getting a certain flash router help with the speeds - if so what's suggested to keep those speeds up?
Any help is appreciated

The ranking by speed of the Processors is IPQ8065, Marwell and Broadcom

So the fastest routers is Netgear R7800 (IPQ), R7500 (IPQ), WRT1900ACS (MW), R7000 (BCM)

With 128-AES-CBC the WRT1900ACS can do 100+ Mbps. I personally test these at this speed through PIA and other VPN's.

The WRT1200AC can do 85+

The R7000 (Not Overclocked) does about 45

The R6300v2 does about 30 Average.

The Asus RT-AC68U can do 65+

Don't argue with me on this, I know my stuff. :p

I went with the Nighthawk X4 R7500v2.

Is this DD-WRT ready?
