My bandwidth decreases significantly when I try to use Sophos XG versus Sophos UTM.

I have both my sophos UTM and Sophos XG setup as virtual machines on the same host with identical resource allotments (8vCPUs/8GB of ram). When I'm using the Sophos 9.X UTM everything is fine I am able to achieve my ISP speeds (50/10) without any trouble. If I cut over to the XG and use that I see below 10 on both down/up speeds. There doesn't appear to be a difference if I have IPS on or off, web filter on or off.

This is being used on the home license so I know that there is a limitation on the XG of 4 vCPUs/6GB but I gave it more just to see what happens and while I can see the counts within XG i'm guessing it isn't actually using all of that.

Is there something else I am missing?

  • I have Sophos XG setup as virtual machine  with 2vCPUs Dual Core with 4gb of ram.

    When I'm using the WIFI Direclty from the ISP Modem everything is fine. I am able to achieve my ISP speeds (190 down /16 up)  witch is what I am paying for 200mpbs down / 16 mbps Up.

    If I access the internet using  the XG  I see below 10 down/ and 5 up speeds. I recently install this so there are no ip rules and there are just 3 port forward rules for other VMs

    This is  on the home license. What can be happening? I saw another post but there is not answer of what may be the issue.

    Thanks
