      Hey,
      As stated in the subject, I upgraded to 2.6.
      No errors or issues during upgrade.
      Just before the upgrade I tested internet speed and it was around 600 but after upgrade the most Im getting is less than 200.
      Both modem and firewall rebooted but same issue.

      Any suggestion on where to start looking for issues?

            Hmm, that should be easily capable of that unless you have numerous packages running?

            How are you testing?

            Do you see errors in Status > Interfaces?

              I apricate you responding. Perhaps I just need to blow out the current version and do a clean install.

              Testing from a computer using a speed test.
              When I plug into the modem and bypass the firewall I get full speed, pretty much the same as before the upgrade.

              Only package is the OpenVPN client export.

              No errors.

                Hmm, do you have any traffic shaping enabled?

                I assume those are igb NICs?
