  • Hi folks,

    I had to rebuild my main firewall because I locked up the old one with a bad firewall rule configuration and could not access it. While most connected devices continued to function correctly a couple would not connect 

    In the interim I had been using a J1900 unit upgraded from v17.514 .mr14 (to v18.0.3 sig) without any user performance issues, GUI is just plain slow.

    Now having built a unit based on the v18.0.3 MR3 ISO and restored from a backup to a working version I am finding the throughput for speed testing is the same as before, but the user experience when web surfing is very slow very slow and I cannot see any logical reason for this? I have restarted the main XG a couple of times

    I will put the j1900 back online to see if I am imaging the issue.

    Immediately after posting this nasty comment, the XG performance improved like somebody threw a go fast switch.
