Good luck! I've done similar things with other satellite providers. The VPN performance will be horrible due to the latency and satellite delay. Remember that the DirecWay service comes with a custom IP stack to cache and help cushion the delays some of which could be upwards of 500 msec. You'll have to work really hard to fine tune the settings to see decent performance. Satellite is not optimal for real-time applications like terminal sessions due to the delays. Now here's the question to investigate. Does the VPN client take over the connection and route all the internet bound packets through the corporate network? Or does it setup routing so only corporate traffic goes through the VPN and Internet traffic goes through DirecWay's datacenter? If it does take over the traffic you could be having problems with timing out due to the combination of delays and not using DirecWays special TCP optimizations.
