Might have to go with there equipment for better performances. The RAX20 is mostly a entry level router. L2TP is not a commonly used protocol and may not have good performances. Something you do is use there router and configure the RAX20 into AP mode for it's wireless abilities.

You suggest using a router as an access point - there are just access points for this, why do I need extra equipment?

I would like to draw the manufacturer's attention to this problem.
