I have set up 2 Win2K3 servers (as VPN routers) for connecting two offices based upon the article: [URL]http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnw2kmag00/html/VPN.asp[/URL] When they are connected, they work fine. The problem I am having is that the VPN routers are taking 30 - 60 minutes to reconnect. Additionally, I am constantly being asked if there is anything that can be done to speed up the connection. Can anyone offer suggestions? Thanks in advance.
