For those unfamiliar with VPN, it's basically LAN over the internet. Unfortunately there is no Linux support for Tunngle yet so I began searching for a solution.
I wanted something easy to setup and manage. So I bumped into [NeoRouter](http://www.neorouter.com/), a free VPN solution, which offered more than I bargained for. NeoRouter allows you to host your own server which means your data doesn't pass from company xxxx before reaching the other computers on the network and more importantly, you don't have to depend on someone else.
I ran my tests on a 30mb download / 1mb upload connection, between Windows 7 and Linux Mint 17. Pinging each other resulted about 35-40ms and I have also used Torchlight 2 in LAN mode for my test. It took a few seconds for one pc to recognize the game I was hosting but once I connected it was literally lag free. I used TeamViewer to view the other computer's screen since it's a few towns apart and whenever I moved my character I could see it moving on the other screen in real time.
I hope this helps someone, if you have any questions I will do my best to answer. :-)
