We have to be patient and wait for mimugmail to update the plugin when he is ready

@meyergru

Do you happen to have a screenshot of your TS settings instead the xml format?

We have a similar issue.  In my case, if a client uses a VPN app, upload speed drops

What would be a good practice running Torguard App on Client Side?  Most of the guides found here are about running wireguard inside OPNsense.

What Firewall Rules and NATs need to be set for seamless flow of traffic both getting out and coming in?

Just a clarification.  Most guide uses "NAT Reflection:  Disabled".  What is the difference if you use system default?

Thanks for this guide.  I have a question though.  How should the firewall rules look like if wireguard and ProtonVPN is running exlusively in a client machine only?

@Seimus

There's a new Traffic Shaping feature in the Firewall Rule (experimental).  What would be a good practice for this?

@GregTheHun

Had the same concern.  The easiest way I was able to deal this is by installing "AdGuard Home"  It does everything you would like to happen plus more

@Patrick M. Hausen

How about the antenna?  Are you using indoor or outdoor?  Does the indoor antenna sufficient if it's placed beside the window?  How fast does it take o syncronize with the satellite?

Thank you guys for your thoughts.

@Patrick M. Hausen

Do you have a guide on how you attached this to OPNsense then configure it?

Hi!

I'm using this GPS:

BU-353N5 GPS Receiver

Are there any configuration that I could use to optimize it's performance?  Right now I'm just using "Generic".  I'm getting a lot of "False Ticker".  Dunno if it's configuration related

@Seimus

Thank you very much to your insights.  I really appreciate it.

My new experimental setting:

Pipe:

1.  Queue 3

Rules:

1.  added tcp ack rule on top of the other rules

Results

It looks like latency went down by 10ms.  Will be running this for a couple of days


* The bursting I meant was the speed we are getting from the ISP.  I'm on a 600Mbps plan and the speed burst between 200 to 600Mbps

@Seimus

Thanks for the reply can you help with a guide on how I should proceed.  So far I experimented with the ff:

Pipes:

1.  Queue set to 2.  Found out this works the best specially when using VPN from the client side.  If I set this to default sometimes speed under VPN from client side do not burst.  It's stuck to 10 or 100Mbps.  My line is 600Mbps

Queue:

1.  Created a priority upload queue with weight of 10 and the rest is set to 1.

Rules:

1. Sequence 1 is for download.  Sequence 2 is for upload. Sequence 3 is priority upload.

Result.

Priority Upload is not getting any hit.  Changed the rules sequence by putting priority upload to first.  I'm now getting hits.  However, VPN speeds originating from clients sometimes do not burst.



*VPN is set using a TorGuard app in the client's machine.  It's NOT set in OPNsense

I was wondering if we could prioritize acks inside the pipe to process this first as this may help with the latency in local network during heavy load

Is there a way to know if your ISP is doing what you just described?  Or this is just trial and error? My ISP uses IPoE over vlan and multicast vlan.  Following your instruction, this would be 1500 + 4 + 4 MTU is now 1508?
