Traffic Graph showing wrong speed after enabling Traffic Shaper

After enabling WAN interface Traffic Shaper dashboard traffic graph showing 2x upload bandwidth.

NOTE! this only happens if the the WAN is PPPoE.
Currently running pfSense 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) with a INTEL I350-T4 NIC.

@coldfire7 Sounds similar to what I found in
https://forum.netgate.com/topic/157564/bandwidth-usage-shown-on-queue-status-page-is-wrong. However we have one router behind another, and the one on 2.5 shows correct (the other is still on 2.4.5).

@teamits maybe they fixed it on v2.5. But 2.5 is buggy so I'll wait until the next release.

Using 2.5.1-RC now, the bug is still present.

Do you have Snort or Suricata in inline mode?

coldfire7 · Apr 6, 2021, 1:16 PM

@steveits No. I'm using Suricata in legacy mode and inline mode completely disables the LAN interface graph I know that.
I have also checked this using a completely new installation of pfSense w/o any plugins and the bug still exist.

Running pfSense 2.5.1 now, this bug/issue still exists.

coldfire7 · Jun 2, 2021, 10:31 AM

Running pfSense 2.5.2 BETA now, this bug still exists

@coldfire7 If you change the traffic graph to use iftop instead of rate, does that help? (Top right of Traffic Graph page.) I just read Netgate is changing to iftop.

coldfire7 · Jun 17, 2021, 4:03 PM

@steveits more or less same result (right side iftop)
