Dansgaurdian squid speedtest.net problem
-
nope fresh install no packages i did notice that the firewall is blocking alot of wan traffic
-
Those are just multicast packets and can be ignored.
-
ok i did a new install on another machine that was faster and changed nics and im getting a little bit better performance im still getting alot of packet loss but my speed has increased so im begining to think the problem is my router that's dropping the packets.
-
Getting to the bottom of your packet loss issue is the key to your throughput problem, I would think. Here is what I see over an 8-hour period:
-
this is what im getting now on the 'new' machine
-
That's a LOT better than it was, but still unacceptable. What kind NICs are you using?
-
D-Link DFE-530TX+ 10/100BaseTX wan
Intel 82801BA (D865) Pro/100 VE Ethernet lan
-
I should have asked sooner, but anything in Status - System Logs - General or Gateways? I'm wondering if maybe you're another install with an apinger issue.

hi kom i just wanna say thanks for your help. i fixed it to the point where i got 0 packet loss i narrowed it down to being a bad cable i was using for the box the other issue i have now is that im still not getting my 120mb/s im gonna call Comcast and see if i can have my modem placed in bridged mode so i can get the public ip second issuse that has popped up now is that i cant log in to the web config with firefox anymore i have to use internet explorer for some reason with firefox the connection times out when i have been using it all along to log in.

Do a forum search. Others have the same Firefox issue. It has to do with HTTPS. There is a Firefox option that you can disable to perhaps fix it.
