Hi Ruud, You say you are using 256k DSL lines. Are these on a public DSL network? If so, I suspect you may be experiencing heavy contention, and therefore packet loss. SNMP, being a UDP based protocol will not tolerate any degree of packet loss.
You could try running some form of VPN or tunnelling transport over the links to ensure guaranteed end-to-end delivery of packets, to ensure the UDP packets get there and back intact.
