While I’m a fan of the raspberry pi I’d recommend offloading log-writes and other dusk intensive processes to an external system or disk or maybe creating a RAM disk. I didn’t account for this and suffered a micro-SD failure taking my gateway down.
I’m currently exploring the Edgerouter (with Marius) as a gateway, and also looking at RAM disk logging on the raspberry pi.

A server (probably a VPS running Linux) equipped with OpenVPN software can do what you want. A commercial router like a Mikrotik can do this too.
Each user 'gateway' would be a VPN client. Either a small home router with VPN capability or perhaps a Raspberry PI could be used at the client end.
Note that as it will be exposed to the open Internet and will become a target for hackers, you will have to install and configure various security measures, keep it up to date, and monitor it closely.

By that we will decrease the latency of the IPIP tunnel that goes to UCSD and back and also hopefully get a much bigger bandwidth (from the data center and not from the UCSD limitations) What Do we need to have in the Data Center in order to Support it ? Is there any expert here that may direct the Software person (if it is a software solution) in our team ? to do it ? any info would be appreciated Regards Ronen - 4Z4ZQ
