      I've got an issue that's odd. I tested with iperf from LAN side of pfsense to wired clients both ways and get full gigabit speeds. When I run an internet speed test I get full download but I'm locked at 100Mb upload. A speedtest from pfsense to the internet provides full bandwidth. But the strangest part is my ethernet backhauled wireless ap clients that are connected to the same switch are not limited to 100Mb and get full wifi bandwidth up and down. What would effect wired clients to lock them at 100Mb upload but not the wireless clients?

        If you don't have and traffic shaping in play I would check the link is correctly at 1G in each connection in the route. Though if something is linked at 100M that would affect both directions. An asymmetric route somewhere might allow that.
