VPN Satellite Issue

[erikhertzel]

All,

We ahve a DirectWay 6000 system at a remote one man office. He is using this to connect to

http://www.gotomypc.com

so we can use that to remotely connect to a machine inside our network that then accesses a client/server ERP system. But, it's really slow. In fact, a dial-up is faster. Our speed test on the 6000 is about 500 down or so and 60 up.

We have a DirecWay because there is no other choice of broadband connections that are cost effective.

We have a Symantec hardware VPN set up on at the corporate office and the remote office with the Direcway. It's slow, so we tried

(a browser based solution) but it's still slow.

So, what are our options? Any type of tweaks or settings we can look at?

For a test. Have you installed Terminal services on a server(admin mode), and tried to RDC to it. The RDC/terminal server is faster than a remote desktop connection. TS admin mode is easy to setup, no cost/license involved, you can always remove it. If it works OK in admin mode, user mode will be the same speed, you could setup a TS server for user mode(costs money).
