21.1 Legacy Series / slow ethernet speed - but downloads only
« on: February 01, 2021, 11:54:23 am »
Hello,
Recently I'd like to test 21.1 on my little x86 cube box with one ethernet port.
So I prepared two configurations - one with openwrt and one with newest 21.1 opnsense.
To my surprise Opnsense just limiting the speed of my downloads to ~100 Mbps with proper speed ~200-300 Mbps upload.
With replaced disk with openwrt configuration - the speed is normal about max of my ISP (700-900 Mbps).
The difference is of course system (linux vs freebsd) and famous realtek gigabit card/driver.
Both systems use VLAN. I tried to turn off/on offload hwchecksums - no difference (maybe some combinations could be better).
Any ideas? no traffic shaping, just normal configuration.
Maybe older version of OPNsense?
Thanks for any tips to check.
Regards
