@BFost said in Looking for ideas on troubleshooting an OpenVPN file transfer speed problem.:

is getting 60-70ms latency which seems totally fine to me

You understand with that latency, your 8mbps is right in the ball part for a window size of 64k.. So you really need to look what is going on.

I take it they are downloading, and not uploading - because upload they have a max of 10 per their isp anyway..

Are they on wifi.. We have lots of users report bad vpn performance - they were just on a shit wifi connection. If they plugged in a wire, no issue with their performance.

@nogbadthebad said in Using RADIUS server but on which device?:

Out of interest how many access-points do you have ?

I have a total of 5 Cisco 1700 Series access points connected to the controller

first, try openvpn because that is well established and wire guard is new. the ProtonVPN service website should have setup instructions and OpenVPN config files that you can use.

How does your question relate to the captive portal ?
( you posted in the captive portal section of the forum )

A reboot is always mandatory as you changed the kernel version (a kernel can't be reloaded in place).

@qssysadmin said in Pfsense 2.6 Captive Portal does not allow vpn connection established:

ping for example to 8.8.8.8 is blocked

Not an issue.
8.8.8.8 replies to DNS requests. No need to ping it.

I put a firewall Rule on the LAN Interface which allows all traffic from internal to external

The default LAN firewall rue permits everything. No extra rules needed.
