Title: [APU2] Connection issues, random lags, drops
Post by: qwertypro on March 03, 2022, 05:41:42 pm: Dear OPNsense Community,

I would like to ask some help, because I have connection issues on my firewall.
The connection to the internet is lagging, dropping packets.
The connection tested with a router connected directly to the ISP's modem and there was OK.

Currently I have OPNsense 22.1.2_1 (fresh installation), apu2e2 with Intel i211AT NIC.

Do you have any ideas to resolve this problem?

Just a guess, but some of those reponses, for whatever reason, could be coming from the other side of the world.

What kind of other diagnostics should I run?
