New Draytek router - which one? was created by llama_thumper
Hi,
I'm looking for a new Draytek router to replace my 2130n models.
I am not an IT professional/do not use these in a business environment.
The three features I care about are:
1) ability to have a VPN tunnel between two routers - ideally maybe one more VPN tunnels
2) ability to support 3g/4g modems
3) good VPN 'throughput' - I would like to be able to connect through a VPN to another country and be able to stream HD (of course this assumes a good ISP, but that is a separate topic, just don't want a bottleneck).
I do not care about WiFi, as would have a separate access point.
I don't want to switch from Draytek as I'm familiar with the interface and am generally happy.
The products I have found are the following:

Are the Vigor 29 models, in categories 1) and 3), any better than the Vigor 21 models? Ie would the Vigor 29 models be overkill?
From the Vigor 2133 model page, I see the following information:
https://www.draytek.com/products/vigor2133/ (in particular 2133ac)
This looks fine to me, can't see anything running counter to my requirements, but grateful for any input.
If you think anything else is important, then, of course, happy to listen!
Many thanks in advance for any replies.

Vigor 2133 series isn't sold/supported in the UK. If you want 3G/4G, it's expensive but the Vigor 2862Lac has it built in which makes it a LOT easier than finding a compatible USB dongle and no USB bottleneck - better reception too I'd assume as it has big aerials etc.
