pfsense upload slow on hyper-v
-
Hi I have a 100/100 fiber connection connected using 1GB UTP cables to my Windows 10 Pro Hyper-V machine where a Dedicated a 1GB interface for the WAN port of the Pfsense.
Download directly on that interface gives me 100/100 in the VM.
When I upload via the WAN interface of the pfsense it is not passing 1.5MB upload speed.
Any help is very welcome.
I tried to disable large send offload but that made upload not better and download drop to 6mbs.

I was using Windows Pro 10 and Hyper-V for a couple of years.
Lately, I saw very low upload speeds indeed. No a big issue, as it was close to my ISP upload anyway.But, lately, on this forum, I saw others mentioning also that Hyper-V doesn't play well with pfSense : speeds are horrible.
For myself : I went to a bare-bone solution.
For you : What about trying another VM host. -
@gertjan The speed directly on the nic works fine. So it is not Hyper-v that is the issue it is Pfsense on Hyper-v.

@ala76nl said in pfsense upload slow on hyper-v:
So it is not Hyper-v that is the issue it is Pfsense on Hyper-v.
I was thinking : Freebsd (pfSense) not playing nicely with the emulated hn virtual interfaces.
Anyway, search the forum, maybe some one found a solution. -
It is a bug in version 2.6.
Never had the issue before.
Upgraded to the dev 2.7 version and now have 100 mbs+ upload speed.

Almost certainly this: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12873
There are workarounds in the linked thread there for 2.6 if you need to use that.
