WAN throughput

What would I need to look at if I am experiencing our WAN throughput to be approx 1/5 of its actual throughput. I am running speed tests through the firewall and getting speeds roughly 9-17Mbps up and down, where it should be 50/50Mbps or close. I haven't done a bypass yet to confirm its definitely the firewall as its a production system but will be doing running that test tomorrow morning. I have toggled off Intrusion Prevention on the LAN to WAN rule, no change. I have made sure Dos spoofing and TDP flood are off. Not sure where else to look. Thanks

  • two tests in order to point to the Sophos unit:

     

    1. bandwidth test from outside the device entirely

    2. test with a computer plugged in directly to the device

     

    Also, don't trust online speed tests as pure numbers.  I would suggest running a test between your own devices on either side of the Sophos to see how much bandwidth you are getting.
