      @sergei_shablovsky said in [SOLVED] - VERY slow System Update:

      I conclude this speed are max per one connect from Netgate hosting provider.

      Not true at all.. Maybe from your ISP and peering issue to there.. But its clearly not a "netgate" connection or server issue.

        I also love Netgate ;)
        And really thankful for their support the pfSense's User Community.

        But as I wrote before in this tread (and other see Errors In, but no Errors Out and No Collisions on both WAN), the iperf3 to different geographic servers (USA, UK, France, HonKong, Latvia, ...) in different regions give me 70-88Mb/s on 100M physical connection.
        The SAME ISP and the SAME physical connection.

          How does that have anything to do with downloading from the netgate servers?

            Shaping on some AS.

            Because in fact iperf3 give me ~80Mb/s worldwide, but fetch from Netgate server - only 16.4kB/s on same physical connection.

                  there is something specifically in the route that traffic is taking that throttling

                  That’s what about this post ;)
                  Even on clean pfSense installation (no any rules, nothing) on that particular machine

                  pkg upgrade
                  

                  or

                  pkg update
                  

                  where fetch command used

                  give me 16,4KB/s ;)

                    On an old pfSense 1.x - and upgraded gradually to 2.5.2 CE - so probably not clean at all :

                    63629071-3f6f-4c9b-906f-f08f5910ed63-image.png

                    20Mbits is my WAN-down.

                    No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                    Edit : and where are the logs ??

                      Is this graph only for fetch image from Netgate server (I mean dev version, nor mirrors in US and other countries) ?

                        👍
                        The answer is : no.
                        My iPhone also decides to update itself to 15.1 (2 GB download) and the rest of the companies network was also actif.

                        I also use an IPv6 connection, that tunnel IPv4 packets out over the WAN with IPv6 traffic in it. So my IPv6 goes over the IPv4 WAN (technically, I have a double WAN setup).

                        I've shut down our main switch, so I was using the only PC on the network :
                        Test again :

                        [2.5.2-RELEASE][admin@pfsense.my-local-network.net]/root: fetch -v -o /dev/null https://snapshots.netgate.com/amd64/pfSense_master/installer/pfSense-CE-memstick-2.6.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-latest.img.gz
                        resolving server address: snapshots.netgate.com:443
                        SSL options: 82004854
                        Peer verification enabled
                        Using CA cert file: /usr/local/etc/ssl/cert.pem
                        Verify hostname
                        TLSv1.2 connection established using ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
                        Certificate subject: /CN=*.netgate.com
                        Certificate issuer: /C=GB/ST=Greater Manchester/L=Salford/O=Sectigo Limited/CN=Sectigo RSA Domain Validation Secure Server CA
                        requesting https://snapshots.netgate.com/amd64/pfSense_master/installer/pfSense-CE-memstick-2.6.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-latest.img.gz

                        That is close to 19 Mbits / sec, my ADSL down bandwidth.

                        It was using IPv4 - as IPv6 (ipv6.he.net) would be slower for me.

                        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
