22.7 Legacy Series / Re: Laptop & Managed Switch (TL-SG10) & VLANs

« on: January 16, 2023, 12:50:38 pm »

I found this video helpful.

Netgear GS108Ev3 Review and Setup
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VY6WPrMZjyk

Admittedly it covers a Netgear 8 port GS108Ev3 and not a TP-Link. Though I'm pretty convinced that TP-Link took more than a casual glance at the Netgear counterpart.

If you are about to buy a switch, don't just pick one with enough ports to satisfy your immediate use case. With VLANs this is specially true. I made this mistake myself by buying a 5 port Netgear GS105Ev2. You'll outgrow a switch faster than you think.

Has anyone tried a "Power Line Phase Coupler" to mitigate the problem caused by three phase wiring?

This is from memory. I think I came across this from the forum some time ago, but I can't find it again. Give it a shot.

Go to - Interfaces -> Diagnostics -> Packet capture

Interface -> WAN

Set port to 853 and press "Start". Take your box for a spin and then press "Stop" and "View Capture" below.

Hardware and Performance / Re: APU2D4 very low throughput 1Gbit

« on: May 28, 2021, 01:56:04 am »

I'd take Teklager's advice regarding fine-tuning OPNsense and APU2x4 to 1Gbit throughput with a grain of salt, since it's never been updated. On pfSense, however the advice has been upgrade thrice.

The OPNsense advise is not dated, but from a screenshot you can deduce that it's from 2019. The pfSense advice is dated, with the original post from 2019-01-15 with there subsequent updates, 2020-07-19, 2020-10-28 and 2021-02-20

https://teklager.se/en/knowledge-base/apu2-1-gigabit-throughput-pfsense/

"Gigabit config for pfSense 2.5.0. No tweaks are required! Don't follow any of the information listed below for pfSense 2.4.5."

If I'm not misinformed both OPNsense 21.1 and pfSense 2.5.0 are based on FreeBSD 12.2. Tuning these two system should consequently be pretty similar.
