I have a standard multi-user Access database with a backend, a design master
and a master replica.  Each user makes a replica of the master replica and
synchronized to the master replica.  I synchronize changes to the design
master also to the master replica.

I have four users that work from home and all user at least a cable modem
broadband connection.  It is very very slow for the remote users.  I am
looking for help speeding this process up.

My first thought was to severe the remote users constant connection to the
backend and allowing them to work until they are ready to update their work
to the main system.  When they want to take the data they have updated and
add it into the backend as well as capture data that other users have added
to the system.

I would like to keep the local users on the local system and only have the
remote users run the update.  Anyone got some suggestions how to do this?
