Thanks for your answers!
I read somewhere that a vpn would really have an impact on performance, so it was not recommended, and I found v2 protocol.
But vpn feels like the solution and you have to accept the lower speed.

Thanks again!

Yeah, you really want to do this over a vpn.

Performance is going to be average at best. It would probably be

What about a tunnel, and have a local ip range route through it? I am not sure what happens if someone is brute forcing your monitors.
