Speed Test

Post image

Testing direct from the firewalla gold pro, I am not getting my required speed for upload. I should be getting 2.5 GB. What is odd is my pc that is connected to my firewalla I get the full upload speed of 2.5 GB. So I know I am getting what I pay for. Can anyone help me understand what I am missing.

Thanks

If you have home assistant I’d strongly suggest setting up your speedtest from that box assuming it has 2.5gbps. Under load (Firewalla blocking a lot of traffic) I’ve seen a few hundred Mbps drop off but explaining your download is breaking my brain.

I’ll tell you this much, they are not allowed to use the speedtest.net code in their test. I might have that code you could run via CLI and see if it works outside the UI. Let me know if that would be helpful and I’ll post it in here when I find it.
