Hi!

We have about 100 staff that are connected to to our LAN. We want to connect them to Internet through a VPN Server. How much bandwitdh is needed to give the staff reasonable speed out on Internet. The Datacenter can give us 500 Mbit/s.

Regards

will they be downloading a lot of stuff? do they watch youtube.com videos during the day? are they ftp'ing stuff? do you have offices in other countries? are there critical apps that need bandwidth?

i dont think there is just one answer
 
All users are in Germany. They will mostly use for surfing and downloads

Some travel to countries like UAE and China

i would start with at least 10Mbits/s and if more is needed, scale it up
 
Ok Thanks
Then will the 500Mbit/s be enough for a while.
