0.95.4 Embedded - slow speeds problem
-
At any rate, I cannot duplicate this here. I'm pushing 15+ megabit on a 4511.
Hey! Don't say that!
That will only make me feel more frustrated ;D.
No problem, Scott.
I'll catch you guys when we're more closer to 1.0.
Any time frame for 1.0?

Ooops, just noticed the change log for 0.95.8 - currently under download ;-).
Would it be reasonable to say that previous releases had issues with WoL/SNMP/DynDNS and that these have been solved?
Because you see, these were some of my other complaints, that is, besides the slow networking performance.

CheersYep. Don't know about the speed problem, but its possible.

Alright!
Cause now I also have a 2 meter CAT5 cable.
I'll test 1st thing in the morning ;).

UPDATE! UPDATE!
Currently testing 0.96.
Problem with SNMP and WoL is fixed.
EDITED: WoL is not working. Service still stops whenever I creat a clients list for WoL. Sorry for misleading you.
Still hasn't tested the DynDNS problem but I will do so later on today.
But the real UPDATE is that with a 2 meter cable I still have speeds of up to 100Kb/s.
But then I changed to a (most probably) 5 meter CAT5 cable and I am now surfing even faster than with m0n0.
Speed is now stable between the 400Kb/s and the 456Kb/s.
It's simply the fastest firewall I have seen here at home.
BTW I still get "kernel: sis1: Applying short cable fix (reg=e8)" messages but now they are only a few compared to 0.95.4.
I was wrong about the cable lenght because with m0n0wall I have never seen these issues.
But remember, it took me a 5 meter cable to do the trick.
Thanks a bunch for all the help guys. -
What do you mean by creating a client list for WOL? Can't say that I am familiar with that.

Maybe I didn't express myself clear in the previous post.
Sorry but English is not my native language.
I meant the MAC table that is under Services > Wake on LAN.
When you open that part of the config, on the top you'll see an Interface drop down and MAC address field so that you can Wake up a host on your LAN/WAN/OPT.
Below you see a a button that says "You also can wake all clients at once" if you press it.
And below that you have a table of MACs and nicknames of your most critical hosts.
That table makes it easier to wake up host when you're not there and don't have a list of all the MACs with you.
That's the table that I'm talking about.
If I add a host for my home PC (MAC and nickname) and then I look at the Status > Services I will find out that the WoL service has stopped.
Then if I remove my PC from the WoL hosts table and I check the Status > Services again I can see that the service is not even mentioned there.
I am positive that this is what's happening.

Okay that's strange, the two shouldn't even really be related.
I'll check it out.
-
Thanks ;).
I still haven't tested DynDNS because I'm affraid they ban me for abuse of their service.
But I think I'll give it a try later this evening.

CheersIt works. See this thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/support@pfsense.com/msg03300.html
Another reason why the mailing lists give more up to date information.

I had already read it before you posted the link.
But since the DynDNS issue has appeared more than once and since I have moved on to 0.96 and the mail stated 0.95x…
BTW, if all the people in the mailing list used the forum the forum would have all the info updated.
That's why at 1st I thought that you should close the mailing lists.
But then I thought "I like forums better than mailing lists but there may be people don't think in the opposite way".
And that's why I wrote in the Feedback sub-forum that maybe the mailing list should keep working.
What suites me the best might not be what suites everybody else the best.
But then we come to a fact that information is too much spread siuch as in this particular case...
But maybe this is pure BS.
Anyway thanks for the info ;).

Reemplaze the card of net of your pc and try again, it me worked to my :)
