[21.7.8:]

Hi,

I've updated OPNsense running on ESXI 7.0 update 3 (build 18905247) from 21.7.8 to 22.1 and I'm experiencing a drastic drop in download throughput from WAN.

21.7.8:

     Server: ORANGE FRANCE - Paris (id = 24215)
        ISP: Orange
    Latency:     1.52 ms   (0.48 ms jitter)
   Download:  1778.08 Mbps (data used: 1.4 GB )                               
     Upload:   598.07 Mbps (data used: 270.1 MB )                               
Packet Loss:     0.0%


22.1:

     Server: ORANGE FRANCE - Paris (id = 24215)
        ISP: Orange
    Latency:     2.22 ms   (0.10 ms jitter)
   Download:     2.41 Mbps (data used: 2.8 MB )                               
     Upload:   597.61 Mbps (data used: 269.8 MB )                               
Packet Loss:     0.0%


Configuration:

• Qlogic 57810 pass-trough for WAN (if_bx0.ko)
• VMXNET 3 card for LAN
• Hardware CRC, TSO, LRO and VLAN Filtering are off.

Reverting to 21.7.8 fixed the issue.

Any idea on where to look?

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm experiencing similar slowdowns with 22.1 final on ESXi 7.0 Update 3. Reverting to 21.7 resolved the issue.
I haven't tried the patched kernel yet as I assume this may only be relevant for Hyper-V.

Cheers

Hi there,

Great guide! Do you know if the patched bxe driver is now included in OpnSense 20.7 or does it still need to be modified?

Cheers
