We have two offices - one in Oklahoma and the other in Vancouver, BC - connected via an OpenVPN connection. We have big pipes at each site (15Mb and 10Mb), and it works great. We average about 70ms latency through the tunnel. We have about 5-6 conference calls per day with up to 20 users, and no one has complained about the audio quality (after we upgraded the Polycom firmware, that is. We had a godawful echo problem with the older firmware).
We used to have an IPSec VPN, but for us the OpenVPN solution is much simpler, and has been more reliable.

Hi: If I connect two offices through an IPsec tunnel, what is the impact on latency, and does it noticeably affect calls? Has anyone out there tried this? What were the effects?
