      Hi,

      Yesterday I setup IPsec tunnel between 2 offices, all work is fine, but dowload speed from <office №2="">to <office №1="">is very slow. (Both 2.0.2-RELEASE (amd64) built on Fri Dec 7 22:39:43 EST 2012 FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p13)

      My Internet channel:
      Upload: 10 Mbit/sec
      Download: 10 Mbit/sec

      If I start upload any file from <office №1="">to <office №2="">I have speed about 10 Mbit/sec, but if I start download any file from <office №2="">to <office №1="">I have speed about 0,5-1 Mbit/sec.

      Can I fix it ?</office></office></office></office></office></office>

        Probably need to set MSS clamping up for VPNs: System > Advanced, Misc tab. Try ~1400 or so.

          @jimp:

          It's doesn't work for me (MSS/MTU etc.). :(

          My pfSense installed on Hyper-V server. 2 days ago I added to VM 4 CPU core and 2048Mb RAM, 2 days everything works better than before.

          Dowload Speed : ~4,5 Mbit/sec
          Upload Speed : ~ 8 Mbit/sec

            Then it may be a general issue with Hyper-V. Search around the forum and you'll see that Hyper-V doesn't play very well with FreeBSD or pfSense.

              Yeah probably you can search the forums to see threads for inmproved drivers for Hyper-V.
              Other than that the legacy driver used will have those performance issues.
