Hey,
I'm rebuilding the lab, and one part will be going from ESXi to Proxmox. Before moving my pfSense setup, I wanted to establish a baseline for what performance I get today. Current setup is ETTH -> pfSense on ESXi -> internal network. I have a 1G/1G uplink.
Doing a speed test (from a client on the wired LAN) on this yielded ~880 Mbps down/930 Mbps up. Decent real-world performance.
The new setup will have multiple nodes with WAN access, so next step is moving the ETTH to my switch on a VLAN segment and cabling in the ESXi port that previously had the WAN cable there. New speed test. And now I got 450 Mbps down. Wat.
The switch is a HP 1810G, and checking the data sheet it should be able to do 48 Gbps switching, so it doesn't seem like I should be hitting some cap there.
Any ideas? While I basically only use the full bandwidth a few times per month or so when downloading something from Steam, I don't really like the idea of dumping half the performance.
