And.....................more info.

So putting the VPN on the Virtual IP seems to have something to do with it. I went back to my VM instance and going to add my secondary IP as an additional virtual card. and test.

I think something with trying to use the alias IP is causing this PL

Ok, so I'm having the same issue, I thought it was a virtualization issue then i created a new system to rule it out.

Turns out that every time one of my openvpn clients attempts to auth it causes the WAN to drop packets. Which ends up causing even more problems because of the TLS auth errors. I verified it is indeed the OpenVPN Connections by using MTR and switching my servers on and off. It happens exactly as explained above.

One of my VPN servers is only 1 client, me. and i'm already connected. So leaving this one causes no PL.

Another server with only 2 users attempting to connect, causes about 8%.

Another server of mine with about 10-12 computers trying to connect at the same time causes 50-60% PL
