      Hi,
      I'm running pfsense in hyper v without any noticeable end user consumption issues, at least from my current work/home usage.

      The only thing that I was aware of and perhaps now should have paid more attention too, was one of the results returned from the Analiti detailed speed test app, in relation to Internet Ping Round Trip Time.

      My results vary but generally I do not get more than 50% success rate!

      If I ping from the cmd line in windows I also get timeouts, maybe 10 or 20 successful before hitting a timeout.

      One thing that really alerted me to this issue, is that recently I have been testing Untangled in a VM, just for my own curiosity, and noticed that when I ran the same Analiti Ping Round Trip Time test, I got 100% success rate.

      So guys, any ideas where I can start looking to resolve this pfSense ping issue? I've changed the MTU on the WAN, and fiddled with some of the DNS Resolver settings, but no improvement. I am wondering if it might be related to some system tunables.

      Any help would be much appreciated!
