I have a WinXP box at home running OpenVPN 2.0rc4 which is connect to a high speed university network. This network blocks all udp packets and most tcp ports. At my work place across town, I have a Linux box also running OpenVPN 2.0rc4. It is connected directly to the Internet with a high speed connection. I have a tcp tunnel between the two machines with all my home traffic being sent through to my work machine. This way I was hoping I could play games and stream video, etc. When the connection isn't stressed it appears to work great and a ping from my home machine to a reliable site produces hundreds of pings with a 0% packet loss. When I start to send a high volume of packets through, such as an online game or video stream, the first 5 seconds or so work great then I suddenly start to get massive packet loss. I've tried disabling encryption, authentication, and compression with no change. I've also tried lowering my sndbuf size to reduce latency with no change. I see no obvious problems in the log window. Below is part of my WinXP configuration in case you spot anything abnormal. Anybody know how to fix this problem? proto tcp-client dev tun sndbuf 8192 tun-mtu 1500 ifconfig 10.1.0.2 10.1.0.1 redirect-gateway secret key.txt auth none cipher none ping 15 comp-lzo verb 5 mute 10 -- Eric Hokanson www.allthingsgeek.com ____________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users |
