Title: VPN latency weirdness with remote teams
Post by: Henryc on February 11, 2026, 11:02:28 AM
Hey

We've got people in Europe and Asia connecting to the same internal servers. Lately, some of them get super slow response times, even small file transfers take ages. I checked the VPN logs on our OPNsense box, nothing really jumps out. The internet lines seem fine and other stuff works normal. I've tried a few tweaks here and there but it's still hit or miss. I was reading something related on daftime.ae (https://daftime.ae/) about cross-region latency and routing inconsistencies, and it made me wonder if this could be more of a path optimization or peering issue than a pure VPN problem. Just wondering if this is something anyone ran into with teams spread across continents.
