New Netgate 1100 - Speed Test Question

[rmoran]

I just installed the Netgate 1100 and slowly learning how to use pfSense. I have 1Gig Down 36MB Up connection. Running speed test from my pfSense Netgate 1100 I only get 176MB down and 35MB Up. Running Speed Test from my Orbi RBR50 (AccessPoint Mode) I am getting 350MB Down and 35MB Up. I was previously getting 800MB Down on my Orbi when it was in Router Mode. My downloads are half speed in other tests on my server. Is there a way to get full speeds? All of my hardwired are on 1Gig connections using Cat5e. Please help a newb. Thanks

@rmoran the SG-1100 can not handle 1 Gbps.
Take a look at the IMIX traffic speeds - https://www.netgate.com/appliances

If you need gigabit down then you bought the wrong device, see this article
