We have 4 offices with internet connections ranging from 8MB ADSL to 2MB Leased lines.Some of the users have reported that the internet runs very slow at times but on testing it the speed seems fine.<br />

Could you advise if there is a, preferably free, program that will monitor and log the speed of the internet connection and the VPN's between the site offices.

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.
