Please log in for more thread options I doubt that the distance has anything to do with it. Your problem is more likely a packetloss and/or bacis connectivity problem. Have you ran any thoughput tests between the two locations? Do a search for a program called 'ttcp'. Remember you DSL line may be 2mbit down, but it's most likly only 200-300 kbits up. > has anyone any tips on how to improve it or is their a better solution
> than ms pptp for this sort of latency? I would suggest using something like OpenVPN to build a tunnel between to lans. PPTP is more of a dialup type VPN connection. If you don't fully understand how networks are routed you are going to have problems. SIX -- Encrypt the whole Internet with a free VPN tunnel from http://www.SecureIX.com | |||||||||||||
