You mean NX, I guess, not X2 (there's no such protocol). However: I am
using NX over two chained WANs without such problems. For some time I even
used it for working on machines on the other side of the Atlantic ocean -
and it worked flawlessly.

@Yan: you could try setting the connection type to ADSL or even ISDN and
retry.
