      I have pfsense running on my local net and a remote net as a virtual machine under hyperv and after much fiddling got it to work.

      At first the speed was horrendous, but I made the following optimizations on the virtual switch and physical nic. 1-2Mbs down and .2-.6Mbs up.

      Disabled RSC on the vswitch
      Get-VMSwitch -Name "WAN" | Select-Object RSC

      On the physical Nic
      Disabled Flow Control
      Interrupt Moderation Rate set to minimal
      Increased Transmit and Receive buffers to 1024

      After these changes my down speed jumped to 300Mbps however my upload only increased to about .6Mbos

      Any ideas or suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?

      Thanks!
