Explanation

Adding additional tunnels only help if you have the bandwidth to support it. The latency is likely a result of an unreliable connection, which additional tunnels will not help with. From the description, the primary fault lies in the fact that their connection is too slow and unreliable. A Dedicated Interconnect will give them the speed and reliability they need to complete the transfer.
