Re: [stunnel-users] Is anyone using Stunnel for tunnelling Voip?

My VoIP model is using 10000 - 20000 udp for the media so this is the reason
I have to tunnel OpenVPN through SSH or Stunnel since I can forward my udp
traffic through OpenVPN.

I need to investigate if Stunnel is available as a package for OpenWRT or
DD-WRT firmware.
