Here's what I have:
I setup 2 openvpn servers on my home network. One running on an ubuntu 10.04 64bit and one running on an OpenWRT router. Both installs are using a single interface with TAP,Certificates only, without TLS auth.
At the remote site, I use a win7 64 bit host and a linux Mint Cinnamon install. Both are on the same subnet, using the same outbound gateway.
From the linux host I can connect to either Server at home (one is running on forwarded port 1194 the other is on forwarded port 1195). Both work fine and my ping times to other hosts inside the network are under 100ms constantly.
From the win7 host I can also connect to either server to the remote network. However the pings to the same internal host results in a ping time of 500-700 ms constantly. This happens across reboots and across reinstalls of the client. I've also tried the openvpn client and the securepoint openvpn client, both give me same results.
My question: Does anyone else see this behavior? Or can anyone else replicate these results? Is this the norm?

Generally speaking, pings in Win is higher than in Linux. But 500-600 is too high. I would suspect that you do a "redirect-gareway" and as Win has a lot of services, it may start pull lot of trafic thru vpn.
