You can't create a consumer on a remote queue. For example, you cannot create a consumer on testqueue@router2 if you're connected to router1. You have to connect to the router where the queue is defined on.


And no, you'd not get more performance if you use multiple routers. That would require to transfer the messages from the sending router to the receiving router. This is done by 2PC (XA) which has more overhead and thus is slower.
