@Rico That's typically what I did! but I'm still feel something wrong ?
-
Any Help ?
-
are you sure is a pfsense/esxi problem and not the ISP throttling large downloads ?
maybe with some screenshot of your config we can better find out if there is something strange/wrong
also use wireshark/tcpdump to analyze the traffic when your download slow down
if it's only "sometimes" (define sometimes) maybe the server you are downloading from is congested -
VMware Tools installed?
Try to switch from vmxnet3 to e1000 or vice versa.-Rico

So, I noticed that there is a Packet Loss !! Please Advise where excellently the problem ?
Thanks -
imho probably your ISP, ping your isp gateway and see if you have the same problem, if it work without problem do a traceroute and ping every single hop until you find what is timing out, after that call your ISP
also check if all your cable are in good condition -
I tried without pfSense directly connected to WAN VLAN, everything working fine without any problem which means it's pfSense problem 100%
-
esxcli network nic tso set --enable=0 -n vmnic0
esxcli network nic cso set --enable=0 -n vmnic0
?
i'm pretty sure it's not a pfsense problem
try to use another physical network interface card to connect the virtual switch to the physical switch to eliminate physical problems.
esxi version? ESXi 6.0 is known to have host loses network connectivity randomly
check /var/log/vmkernel.log file, if there is evidence of transmit timeoutsalso check if this article can help you

Thanks @kiokoman for you help, really appropriated. But why when I directly connected the WAN without pfSense everything goes fine ? also I tried to change the adapter type from e1000 to VMNET3 and the same problem !!

Again: Latest VMware Tools installed?

@Rico yes sure
-
@Rico Open-VM-Tools v10.1.0_2,1

did you set traffic shaping or load balancing on the vswitch ?
-
@kiokoman NO

i'm tring to mess as much as i can with my vm but i'm unable to reproduce it
can you do a test with pfsense 2.5.0-devel ?
also i found this about the vmx driver
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=vmx&sektion=4
ethernet0.virtualDev="vmxnet3" i have it inside the virtual machine configuration and
The hw.pci.honor_msi_blacklist tunable must be disabled to enable MSI-X support.
i have it set on my
/boot/loader.conf.localhw.pci.honor_msi_blacklist="0"
also i found this but idk if it's still relevant
https://forum.netgate.com/topic/88082/esxi-5-5-packet-loss/12 -
I have a bunch of pfsense instances running in ESXi. No issues. All 2.4.4-p3 and 2.4.5-RC.
-
Yeah I don't think this problem is pfSense related.
Can you spin up two more VMs for testing? One with vanilla FreeBSD 11.2 and another with Linux or Windows. Check if the timeouts happen in one or both test VMs.-Rico

problem SOLVED after "Disabling hardware checksum offload"

i told you 4 days ago to disable cso "esxcli network nic cso set --enable=0 -n vmnic0"
but i forgot to tell you to disable it from the pfsense gui
