Throughput from Lan to Wan
-
@johnpoz I will give that a try.
For the NAT problem. I guess the nat didn't work because everything was or is allowed in the firewall rules for this interface. How would the rules have to be set here so that the NAT can still work? Allow everything except LAN interface where the 8.227 is connected?
-
@orkopaede nothing should have to change in the firewall rules, if the traffic was allowed before. But if you had an existing state, you would need to clear out those old states that were not doing nat.. Or just wait til they go away on their own on timeouts.
-
@johnpoz Okay then I'll just reset the stats or wait. I have to go and pick up my child from kindergarten anyway so.
First of all, thank you for your time and help. I'll test further tomorrow. Thank you! -
@johnpoz Finally with the last test

Okay now i have to go.
-
@orkopaede you can always just kill any state in the state table directly. Under diagnostics, state table.
edit:
That seems low for whatever reason.. Notice in mine it was a very small hit to the speed, compared to just lan to lan speed.. And your on an I5.. I would think that is more powerful than my sg4860.. -
-
@orkopaede yeah you need to put the nat on the correct interface for the direction of your traffic flow ;)
-
@johnpoz ok i tested it a bit further and i think it is a windows problem. I repeated the tests on a Linux PC and I always got my 200Mbit without establishing multiple connections (iperf option -P). I don't think I have to bother anyone here with this topic. ;) Thank you once again for the help.

@orkopaede said in Throughput from Lan to Wan:

did you actually enable window scaling - all the posts you show it disabled.edit: never mind looks like you did enable it.
-
@orkopaede I don’t see in the thread that you checked traffic shaping? I’ve seen many threads where an old setting was left enabled.
-
@steveits Hi, traffic shaping is disabled on all Interface. I never touched this part of pfsense.
-
@orkopaede So i guess it is what it is... a Windows problem.
When i find the Problem i will post it here, hopefully with a solution. -
@orkopaede Hi! Run wireshark on the Windows machine and see if anything catches your eye. Also check Windows power-saving for the NIC you are connecting from. For some poorly written drivers, Windows tends to make some bass-ackwards assumptions about what "energy saving" vs "disrupting key functionality" means.
