        Ah, good test!

        So what's different about LAN1 then? You have packages running? Maybe Snort or ntop-ng on LAN1 only?

          no idea
          I do recall installing darkstat, but I did disable it. any other packages can slow down bandwidth ?

            Things that actually examine traffic can slow it, so; Snort, Suricata, Squid, Ntop-NG are the prime suspects.

              well I disable darkstat, even removed it. It did nothing. I can't see anything else packages wise that would cause this problem as I think I only really install darkstat, and cron...

              I found the problem. I had a freaking traffic shaper! A while nack I was fiddling with trying to get a level balance of all primary devices. Once I disabled this I could get my speeds. All that for this!!

              well it was a good deep dive I guess, and I sure know what I sohuld be looking for in the future.

              Thanks to all
