I only receive 15 Mbps on any server I use. Are there any suggestions as to get my speed increased?

I just found a post that suggested moving over to TCP over port 443 and it doubled my speed. i'm now getting 30 Mbps. Any other pieces of advice out there?

My router's processor is running at 30-40% usage now with TCP. is there anyway we can get it to use more and get me more speed?

Get a better ISP that does not limit the speed to 15 Mbit/s.

Not the ISP as I stated the router is the bottleneck. It increased speed when I changed the VPN protocol to TCP

UDP should be faster than TCP. Your ISP is probably throttling UDP traffic. You are not the first one that have experienced that.
