      Hello,

      Could you please share the settings / configuration you put to run your test with iPerf3.

      I currently have an Asus 10Gb card and I've just ordered an Intel X550-t2 and I'd like to do several tests with my current card and then with the new one (which I don't have yet).

      I could then put my results here for comparison.

      Thanks

      I started with two "no-name" pfsense, one for use at home and the other as a backup in case of problems (which can happen when you're new to pfsense).
      ... And now I'm living with a Netgate 8200
      ... And sorry for my bad English...

        Thanks for the tip but that is not the issue, and it didn't help. Every time after a shut down and start of the PC I cap out at 2-2.5 in speedtest (only download however).

        What is interesting however, is that I now tested with iperf and get the full 9.44 Gbit... so what is it that speedtest does differently, or fast.com for that matter?
