Hi Atul:

In general, VPN connection with the SBS as the endpoint are not very usful
and can restrict the bandwidth by fragmenting the usable upload speed which
is generally not all that great to start.

The best suggestions I can give you are to either use hardware appliances
at each end to create the VPN, and, or to use RWW to land on workstations
or a Terminal Server (Remote Desktop Services).

Along with Larry's' great Suggestion
My guess is the issue is the hardware you have at both...

Larry is correct IMO
Get two good Quality "SAME" Brand
Routers and VPN them together
it will be much easier and you will be happier.

Also Implement OpenDNS.org to help cut down on unneeded traffic.

Hi Russ

I am working with my Brother. Could you please set me the link how to
set up OpenDns.org. My understanding is to setup on the router.

You go to the web site www.opendns.org to set up an account. You go
into your SBS DNS manager. Right click on your server name and choose
properties. Click on Forwarders tab and enter in the numbers from
opendns.org. Note that the use of opendns.org is more powerful with a
proper account where you restrict potential troublesome types of web
sites. This assumes that you are working with SBS 2003 and that your
SBS 2003 is doing DHCP for the workstations. You can also set things
up on the routers if they are doing DHCP but you still need to set up
accounts for the routers as they will have different ips. Opendns.org
does custom settings based on your ip. Their website has a number of
how to articles.

Some basic routers will only allow one vpn tunnel through it.
