-
Hi guys, Im new to PFSense. I just joined a company recently that uses pfsense on their internet connection.. there are 2 groups that uses the internet.. HumanResourse (HR) and the Publc diner (canteen). both have like 10 pc's each. The problem is if all the PC are connected to our cisco switch, the connection is intermitent.. we are getting a lot of request time outs when continuesly pinging google and yahoo.. but if we unplug 2 connections.. the connections are getting back to normal.. Im sure that there are no problems with the switch.. so can anyone help me out if there is any problem with the pfsense installed on a PC that is also connected to the switch? Im totally newbie to pfsense.. thanks in advance.

What are the specs of your pfSense box?
Then-
Id wonder if you have enough states set… "System/Advanced/Firewall Maximum States"
Default is 10,000.
Look at "Status/System/State Table Size" and see what that reports during your test.
