1.60 Gbits/sec from Win11 to OPNsense iperf3 server.
2.37 Gbits/sec from Win11 to Unraid (N95) iperf3 server.
Quote from: meyergru on Today at 06:15:06 PMThere are big timing differences between internet and local connections and also, the endpoints can behave differently, thus there can be any number of problems w/r to timing and/or buffering.OK, but this clearly shows there is something wrong with the OPNsense Mini PC itself :
The latter depends on which TCP algorithms are in use, such that flow control and buffering or interrupt coalescing can very well play a role.

Quote from: ou1 on Today at 06:08:40 PMjust a quick update - I decided to try some different hardware. I loaded my config into the following machine:Make sense I guess when you do a quick search for some comparisons : https://duckduckgo.com/?q=AMD+V1500B+vs+Intel+i5-8500T&ia=web
M920q, Intel i5-8500T, Intel X710-DA2, 16GB RAM
The performance increased dramatically.
iperf3 single stream went from 2Gbps to 4.6Gbps
iperf3 multi-stream went from 5Gbps to 9.2Gbps
CPU load peaks at 50% then drops during the tests.
It's not as compact and elegant as my DEC750, and I cut a hole in the top for a fan, but it seems much more powerful.

iperf3:
1.48 Gbits/sec from the router to a public server.
1.28 Gbits/sec from Win11 to the same public server.
1.60 Gbits/sec from Win11 to OPNsense iperf3 server.
2.37 Gbits/sec from Win11 to Unraid (N95) iperf3 server.Quote from: dirtyfreebooter on Today at 03:28:26 AMI did update my i226 firmwares to v2.32 tho i dont think that mattered.So have a look at this topic : https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=48695.0
Maybe that's the issue here...Quote from: meyergru on Today at 08:35:27 AMI have tested the pure routing speed of N100-based OpnSense systems between VLANs to ~6 Gbps, so that should work.NICE! :)
So far I only knew that a N100 can satisfy the 2,5 Gbps NICs out there as long as you don't use any IDS/IPS stuff.QuoteW/R to the Windows 11 system, I have seen network drivers that needed tuning to exceed 1.5 Gbps on some network adapters, like disabling interrupt moderation, enlarge buffer sizes or changing flow of control settings.He got good speeds to his DIY NAS :Quote2.37 Gbits/sec from Win11 to Unraid (N95) iperf3 server.So I am guessing that's not the issue...

Quote from: Smash on June 06, 2026, 08:41:56 PMCurrently it seems that I fixed it by fixing another upload related issue: https://lemmy.world/post/47842833There are issues out there with certain Switches when they need to buffer traffic between 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps indeed, so that's always something to watch out for :)
