How should this do any harm? The router is a totally different pc. Shouldn't the cpu usage be high at least if OpenVPN settings would interfere here? > And as you have a fixed IP address, why not simply use a regular SSH > connection instead of openvpn? (I've seen it ridiculed by a simple > remote desktop connection on w$…) What do you mean? I do not want to use direct connections as I have to do a port forward in this case.
