I also am experiencing very slow peer-to-peer VPN connections with Rogers. It feels like my traffic is being throttled as if it were a bit-torrent connection. I see this when I use a remote desktop application 'Logmein", (and possibly even when Skype conferencing.)<br>
<br>One suggestion I've heard and am finding this works, is to make sure there are no torrents active on your network that may cause Rogers to start throttling you willy-nilly. Rogers admits that throttling is affects other types of traffic and they are working on a solution to this. So possibly you need to search and destroy the torrents running on your network, (which I know you have mentioned is a problem.....)<br>

Every few months I get unhappy about our internet access and<br>
pre-emptively start blaming Rogers. Today's complaint goes like this:<br>
we have two OpenVPN access points set up to the same network -- one<br>
accessing the network via a Rogers gateway, and one via a Sympatico<br>
one. Both OpenVPN connections work sometimes, but for the past two<br>
months our Rogers OpenVPN gateway has been so slow it is basically<br>
unusable -- even when the Sympatico gateway is okay.<br>
<br>
I am still trying to figure out how to make pfSense (which is hosting<br>
these access points) cough up debugging information. There is also<br>
some chance that our network is doing something funky. But I want to<br>
know whether I can rule out Rogers or not. Are others running OpenVPN<br>
servers connecting via Rogers? Does my experience ring any bells for<br>
you?<br>
