Recently switched over my unifi network to pfSense being the edge router. I dropped my USG (for now), and got everything switched over fine. However, my pfSense seems to be limiting my speeds to 94 Mbps. I know this server I have it on (dell r420) can handle gig speeds because I used it in the house prior to moving to this one. Anyway the specs are Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2440 0 @ 2.40GHz
12 CPUs: 1 package(s) x 6 core(s) x 2 hardware threads, with 48GB RAM. Everything is 1000baseT (full duplex). Does anyone have any ideas why I’m being limited?
If I need to post more info I can, I don’t think it is a hardware issue. Everything is up-to-date, and I am a little stumped to why I’m not getting full GiG speeds.
So, I’m still using the Unifi controller, had issues getting it to stop giving out / attaching the old network IP. I got everything to switch to the new network IP. I’m not sure if the controller is causing this limiting of the network speed. But everything else should be fine unless pfSense is doing something. Prior, to installing my pfSense box, I was getting GiG speeds with the USG. Really unsure of what is causing this…
