      Hi everybody,
      i have a very strange issue with Captive Portal.
      When a user log in with his laptop, he can barely reach 30mbit/s download over a 1gbit link (upload is always fine at 800/900mbit/s).

      I made some tests with the same laptop, and found out that if i create a static auth entry based on device MAC address (from CP, MACs submenu) instead of radius based web user login, also download reach full gbit.

      I'm not doing traffic shaping.
      Any idea on what could be wrong?

      Thanks

        @prophet there was a bug in the past (traffic continues to be limited if there is any value in upload / download limiters of the captive portal. Even if the checkbox for enabling speed limits is unchecked)
        Could you try to enable the speed limiter of the captive portal, remove any value in upload/ download then disable the speed limiter again?
