Speedtest upload always 0.1mbit when using pfsense as gateway

[commandoathens]

Hi all I have tried everything I could think of.
My setup is as follows
WAN=down
LAN=10.10.10.10
Static route in LAN 10.0.0.0/8 to 10.10.10.1 (mikrotik router that has a pptp which gives it internet)
Routing Gateway configured in Pfsense LAN=10.10.10.1
My subnet 10.10.10.0/26 is also NATed in the mikrotik router
When using in my pc Mikrtoik as the gateway I can get speedtest normal upload
When using in my pc the Pfsense as gateway I ALWAYS get upload 0.1mbit but download works.
Has anyone had this issue?
Thanks

@commandoathens
So if I got you, you've put pfSense into the mikrotiks LAN and want to use it as gateway??
You will have asymmetric routing issues with that.

If you want to have pfSense between the LAN device and the router connecte the WAN to the router and LAN to the internal devices. Set up a separate subnet between the mikrotik and pfSense. On pfSense WAN enter the mikrotik into the gateway box.

@commandoathens I had this problem recently. I solved it by going to System->Advanced->Networking and then disabling Hardware Checksum Offloading. Ticking that box fixed it straight away.

I was using a KVM Virtualised instance of pfSense with VirtIO NIC's if that helps.
