Tried looking through the thread some so forgive me if I'm repeating something recent.

I'm looking to upgrade my home network and finally get a decent router, but I would like to get a VPN set up so I can remote into home. For some reason my work blocks outbound PPTP so it's either going to be IPSec or SSL to connect back to home with. I looked and saw that DD-WRT supports OpenVPN which uses SSL but I wanted some opinions on the implementation. Has anybody used it and could comment on the stability and throughput of it on DD-WRT?

Can you link me? Googling "Host VPN" isn't very helpful for obvious reasons.

I've been using them for a couple months and it's a pretty sweet setup.

I experimentally bought a new cheap router (a Linksys N150) to see if it had any effect on Youtube video download speeds, it did not. I guess there isn't anything else about my home network that could be causing the problem, right?

Have you tried the YouTube Center add on for Firefox or Chrome yet? You can disable DASH through it and that has been successful for some people in getting YouTube to load faster.
