I’m a bit confused on this comment here:

Additionally, I’d prefer not to not do something like: Computer -> Home VPN -> Mullvad server -> destination, as my upload speed is pretty bad and this would throttle every non-local connection

Because you also mention this:

Which is would be the same thing, no? You’re just making a connection to the Mullvad server first then your home network?

I’ll share my experience but it looks like it’s not the solution you’re looking for, I opted to use my Asus WRT Router w/ [Merlin Firmware](https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/) to host my VPN server, the Merlin Firmware lets me connect to 5 different VPN clients at a time, I use the “VPN Director” feature to route my VPN Server through one of the 5 different clients effectively creating the multi-hop.

I personally haven’t noticed much degradation in regard to connection speeds but at the same time I don’t constantly hop VPN clients, I typically stick with the server closest to me.
