COMCAST 100 MEG Bandwidth downgrade

riad63
I'm testing UTM9 Software on a DELL OPTIPLEX GX520 PC, P4, 3M RAM, and a COMCAST Business connection of 100M Down / 10M Up. Download speeds are measureing only 33M down instead of 60M and higher. Is this a hardware limitation or something else?

    IPS Slows down downloads speeds.
    Disabling IPS, will give you the full bandwidth.[[:)]][[:)]]

    IPS does not give that much of a hit when properly configured AND it has enough cpu

    What features of the utm are in use...how many users....and what NICs?

    Hi, riad63, and welcome back to the User BB!  I just looked at your unanswered thread from two years ago.  I guess Astaro Support found that you needed an Exception for 'Anti-DoS Flooding' or ???

    After you answer William's questions, you might want to check out the relevant comments that Sascha Paris made three months ago.

    Cheers - Bob
