That's what we do now - we have IPSec VPNs between all of our offices.
However, this does not mitigate problem with the number of hops, and the
latency added at each one. It's especially bad in AU, as the ISP they're
using seems to have a large number of routers with latency > 100ms,
sometimes reaching over 200ms.

Ain't nothing magic about a VPN.
