Americans Are Losing Patience With Their Internet, and These States Are Complaining the Most

Роутеры с встроенным VPN: пора ли ждать массового рынка?

Короткий ответ — да, но не в том виде, как это обычно представляют. Речь не о «роутере с бесплатным VPN из коробки», а о связке железа и подписочного сервиса.

Что уже есть

Рынок постепенно движется в сторону интеграции VPN на уровне домашней сети. Уже сейчас можно выделить два подхода:

1. Предустановленные решения (премиум-сегмент)
Появляются устройства, где VPN интегрирован на уровне прошивки и активируется через аккаунт. Пример — ExpressVPN Aircove: пользователь получает готовую инфраструктуру без необходимости ручной настройки.

Также есть партнёрские интеграции вроде роутеров ASUS routers with NordVPN integration, где настройка максимально упрощена, но сам VPN остаётся отдельной подпиской.

2. Классическая модель (массовый рынок)
Большинство устройств (ASUS, TP-Link, MikroTik, GL.iNet) предлагают:

- встроенные клиенты /
- гибкую настройку
- отсутствие самого VPN-сервиса

Пользователь сам выбирает провайдера и конфигурирует подключение.

Почему «VPN из коробки» ещё не везде

Несмотря на очевидный спрос, есть три системных ограничения.

1. Конфликт бизнес-моделей
Производители роутеров зарабатывают на продаже устройства один раз. VPN-сервисы живут за счёт подписки. Интеграция требует либо партнёрства, либо вертикальной интеграции — а это усложняет продукт.

2. Ограничения по железу
Шифрование трафика — ресурсоёмкая задача. Бюджетные роутеры:

- не имеют аппаратного ускорения
- резко теряют пропускную способность под нагрузкой

В реальности падение скорости может достигать десятков процентов.

3. Регуляторные риски
В ряде стран VPN — чувствительная тема. Встраивание сервиса «по умолчанию» может создавать юридические риски для производителей и дистрибьюторов.

Куда движется рынок

Несмотря на ограничения, вектор уже сформирован:

- рост популярности privacy-first решений
- усложнение сетевых угроз
- распространение VPN на уровне приложений, браузеров и ОС

Логичный следующий шаг — перенос VPN на уровень всей домашней сети.

Как это будет выглядеть

Наиболее вероятная модель:

- роутер с преднастроенным VPN-клиентом
- интеграция с конкретным провайдером
- trial-период (например, 12–24 месяца)
- дальнейшая работа по подписке

По сути, это повторение сценария антивирусов начала 2010-х, только на уровне сетевой инфраструктуры.

Итог

Массовое распространение роутеров с VPN неизбежно, но:

- не в виде «бесплатного решения для всех»
- а как часть экосистемы «устройство + сервис»
- с акцентом на подписку и контроль качества

То есть рынок идёт не к хаотичному набору «VPN всех цветов и вкусов», а к стандартизированным решениям от крупных игроков.

I have an old #Netgear #R9000 WiFi #router acting as an access point. This router is end-of-life and supposedly no longer receives firmware updates; there was a security update last September, so it isn't _too_ stale.
Because it's serving as an access point it has no public IP address, though obviously a sufficiently dedicated attacker could literally sit outside our house and talk to it over WiFi.
If you were in my shoes, what would you do with this router?

Verizon's got a new internet plan, Home Internet Lite, for just $25/month. The catch? Slower download speeds. It's pitched for those with 'unreliable internet access,' but is trading speed for cost a deal or a trap? How much bandwidth are you willing to sacrifice for a lower bill?

Fast internet in LA? CNET says it's out there, but your mileage (and provider options) will definitely vary. It's like a digital scavenger hunt. What's the biggest pain point you've had with choosing an ISP?

So you've paid for a gigabit plan, but it feels like dial-up? Turns out, your ISP is only *half* the equation. This CNET piece reminds us that decent modems and routers are the unsung heroes of fast internet.

Lately Frontier internet has been super spotty for us. Thinking of getting a wireless hotspot to use as a backup when we need it, anyone know of a good 5g hotspot that you can use intermittently as needed? Ideally it would have an Ethernet connection to connect to my UDM-Pro.

Until the fiber outside our house gets lit, we've been using T-Mobile home Internet. Tower is right outside our neighborhood. We get fantastic speeds. Our phones use T-Mobile on the backend too. Well, someone decided to severely vandalize the tower. Cut the cables, damaged the cabinets. We've been down for days barely getting a bar from another tower. 😭

They're saying it'll be days before they get it back up.

My weekend project - labeling and upgrading all the #RG59 cables and wall plates in our 65 year old house. Ran a brand new, shorter, and more direct cable to our #CableModem and the signal is vastly improved as you can see in the second picture. Venturing into in the dusty crawl space was well worth it! #HomeInternet #DOCSIS #cough #WhoInstalledThis #cabling #sneeze

So, in case anyone is wondering, last night #tmobile pushed an update to some of its #HomeInternet devices which rendered them unable to connect to the internet.
Lucky Me, I'm one of those customers.
Supposedly their engineers are working on a solution... #Supposedly.
Guess I get to wait and see.
Meanwhile, tethering my desktop to my cellphone so I can get some work done...

UPDATE: It took over 45 minutes just to cancel the free trial... (first in a chat, then in a phone call that was then transferred to another phone call).

T-Mobile 5G home Internet. $50/mo.

(I going to pass unless it starts getting a lot faster during my free trial.)

@newsbot The cell service for #t-mobile isn’t that bad. I had 5g across the UP of Michigan. It’s the #homeinternet that is the problem. There are times I have to airplay from my phone to my Apple TV css as use my home internet is not there or so slow that I can’t even stream low definition tv.

This is going to be so oversold. I love the idea, but people were already complaining about congestion even before...
