I run my company's OpenVPN endpoint on both UDP and TCP. I send out
configurations using UDP because it works in almost all circumstances, but
there was once, with an employee travelling somewhere in Europe, where the
hotel firewall/NAT didn't do anything for UDP connections. That's the only
time it's ever been used and it may never be used again. The TCP connection
is just too much slower to use on a regular basis.
