Hi, The company I work at uses openvpn extensively. We settled on UDP-based protocol as it is more effective than TCP based.
Inter-Israeli VPN connection works perfectly all of the time, whereas international VPN has erratic behavior on at least one ISP. I suspect the ISP (XFone 018) dropping UDP packets occasionally during peak hours for following reasons: - ICMP ping to the internet-facing IP number of the VPN router works properly all of the time - over-VPN ping to some server has about 50% packet loss during peak hour (tested at 23:00) - on different ISP at the same time there was no packet loss - over-VPN ping on the same ISP worked perfectly in the morning hours Have anyone else noticed the same behavior? What is legal status of such network traffic policing? -- Arie
