      Hi,
      I have a SG-2220 I'm having an issue with.  I only get 20Mb down & 2.8Mb up when using DHCP on WAN using AT&T's method for a static IP.
      Systems info:
      SG-2220 Pfsense 2.3.4-RELEASE (amd64)
      ISP router AT&T 5268ACFXN  1GB service

      AT&T Router logic:
        This router can be connected in two ways:
      DHCP/Dynamic - Router assigns a dynamic IP to a device connected to it.  The internet IP is the IP assigned to the router (DHCP/Dynamic IPs are NAT'd)
      DHCP/Static - Router assigns a static IP to a device attached to it.  As best I can tell, this is a DHCP reservation from a IP group that the ISP treats as a static on their network.  The assigned IP is the IP that appears on the internet (no NAT).
      Troubleshooting done:
      Using a Win 7 PC I connected (direct to AT&T Router) using DHCP/Static.  The assigned IP shows properly on the internet and speed is 950Mb down 970Mb up (speedtest.net).
      Connect the SG-2220 using the DHCP/Dynamic.  Speeds are similar and the assigned IP is NAT'd.
      Connect the SG-2220 using DHCP/Static.  The assigned IP shows properly (no NAT) and speed is 20Mb down 2.3Mb up (speedtest.net).
        - tried rebooting SG-2220, AT&T router, going back to old settings, etc.  None of these had any effect.

      Observations:
      SG-2220 shows the WAN connection as 1Gb on the Dashboard for both scenarios.
      AT&T router shows 1Gb for both scenarios.

      Thoughts on how I can resolve this?

        Updates  the flash from 1.00.00.05 to 1.00.00.12 to no effect.

          I've moved to Dynamic DNS.  Tried both types of connections on the AT&T router and now neither works past 20Mb down  :(

            Turns out I had traffic shaping on and it was limiting the interface.  As I now have 1GB I really don't need to shape. ;)
