IMHO With audio network dealys and congestion are rarely the main issue
as they are serving many many users.  If they are a bit slow then they
are exposing an issue in your setup.

I don't use VPNs so I can't go into great details but from other users,
I know VPNs can cause "odd" problems - is it a real VPN or just one that
messes with DNS ?
