      Hello all

      I'm having a bear of a time troubleshooting an issue I've been suffering for awhile.  Hopefully someone can help me look in the right places to track it down and ultimately squash the bug.

      When I download large files or saturate my connection, it'll go for a period of time, then freeze.  When I try to see what's going on, pfsense web gui is completely unresponsive for a few minutes, but eventually will recover.    I recently tried to download some large files from my remote host using SFTP via Filezilla, and after numerous attempts, I cannot complete the downloads.      In addition, I am unable to update any Mac/iOS devices, as the downloads time out and never complete.    If I run straight up to the cablemodem, everything works.

      My gateway log is filled with these entries (IPs removed):

      send_interval 500ms loss_interval 2000ms time_period 60000ms report_interval 0ms data_len 1 alert_interval 1000ms latency_alarm 500ms loss_alarm 20% dest_addr 000.000.000.000 bind_addr 000.000.000.000 identifier "WAN_DHCP "

      WAN_DHCP 000.000.000.000: sendto error: 65

      Here is my setup:

      Homebuilt Supermicro C2758 board (Intel nics)
      8GB Ram
      SSD
      Brighthouse 100/10 service terminated by an Arris SB6183

      2.3.2-RELEASE (amd64)
      Squid (ClamAV enabled)
      Squidguard
      Lightsquid
      snort (not currently enabled - had problems)

      Any help would be appreciated.

        Simple things first. Try disabling squid.
