What is wrong with my limiters
-
Hy guys, i need help. I offer wireless internet service to clients in rural clients in Kenya,Africa.This is now my second year using pfsense as my main firewall router which runs of a Hp desktop where i installed 2 more Nic adapters to have a total of 3, one onboard nic and two added nics. For the two years i have been using pfsense, i have not had any big problem with the firewall except the issue with limiters.About 8 months back i posted on the issue in the community forum but i still find the problem persisting. So i have this setup where i have two types of clients, 1. Are limited to a bandwidth of 5Mbps 2. Are not limited. There are about 25 clients in the 5mbps Alias but the issue is that not all of them get the 5 Mbps speed even with a speedtest others get 1Mbps. For the record i have about 150Mbps backhaul, so it is supposed to be sufficient. What might be the problem.I set the limiter as follows: Bandwidth 5600kbps, Mask-Source Address, 32{ipv4}, 128{ipv6}. Queue Management Algorithm=Tail Drop, Scheduler=Worst case Weighted fair Queueing. Kindly help

Can you make some screenshots of how your rule and limiter settings for the 5 Mbps clients looks like?

How does the rule look like?

That looks fine, what hardware are you running Pfsense on?
Are you sure that Pfsense is the culprit and not some hardware elsewhere or user error?
