Hi all,

Im new to opnsense and trying to install a system.
Met setup
I3-2130
4 gbram
128gb ssd
Intel pro 1000 mt dual nic.

Im testing lan wan througput bt not getting more than 350 mbps.
Im trying to build a system that could easy saturate a 1 gbps wan link.

From the different topics i read that intel was the way to go.
I checked my cpu load while doing iperf en load is less 10 %.

Disable offload is ticked.

Not sure what the issue is so need some help these cards sould be able to fill 1gbps which they do when using a vanilla linux.

All help appreciated.

Cheers,
Hemant

Old CPU, do you have spectre and meltdown enabled? They are by default. What about your power settings? Forcing power saving I the bios or with powerd could be impacting you as well.
