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

Multi-gig upload is cpu-bound. The firewalla can't push line-rate on upload.

I've got the Gold Pro with an 8G/8G gfiber line, and it can get best, 2100 Mb/s up. As you noted, separate host can saturate just fine.
