How do I know the Limiters are really gone. I am having strange behavior
-
I had some Limiters to control the upload and download bandwidth.
I remove/delete the Rulle that was using them and the limiters but the bandwidth seems to be still limited.
My contracted download is 40Mbits but when doing a speed test I get closely to 3Mbits as if the network could not go over that value.
The WAN Traffic Graph though shows the IN to go up to 11Mbits.
I rebooted the machine and manually Reset States but speedtests do not pass over 4Mbits.
My pfsense is 2.3.2-Release (amd64)
ISP says the modem is transmitting full speed.

I'm interested on this too. I'm seeing the same behaviour on 2.2.6 (yes I need to upgrade sometime). I was hoping a reboot would fix it but your comment kinda dashes that hope of mine.

I think you could run something like "ipfw show" via command line to see if there are any active dummynet pipes/queues (limiters).
Are you sure your ISP isn't being flakey?

Not sure. Today a technician will go to site to verify the modem, maybe replace it.

I look into ipfw show.
I did ipfw -x 2 show. Seems that 2 is the default as I tried 0 and 1 but did not show anything.

What can you tell me about this output related to the Limiters?
Nothing, sadly. I've got zero experience with ipfw.
I don't see any bandwidth params though, so maybe that means no limiters?
You'll have to search or wait for someone knowledgeable to answer.

The ISP replaced the modem and now the bandwidth is OK. So the limiters were not to blame.
