We have been able to run vantage quite reliably directly over a VPN (V
8.03.405A). This is a Cisco hardware to hardware VPN, but it has been
very reliable and has eliminated the need for terminal services for us.
One thing that I have seen cause this issue is the power savings
settings on the network card driver. Even if your computer does not go
to hibernate overnight, it may shut down the network card to "save power".
It's worth a check.
