Hello guys,
As a personal project I am using the Fujitsu Futro S920 thin client at home as a server for my homelab with Proxmox
At home I have a 2.5 Gbps FTTH with ONT ZTE F6005 connected to a Zyxel 5601 router on the 2.5 Gbps WAN port.
The LAN port is connected to the Futro via a KALEA-INFORMATIQUE PCIe 3.1 1x 2.5 PCIe card ( previously a Tplink TX201 with Realtek chip with same problems).
The card is connected with a PCIe riser and I am doing the speedtests from a Debian container.
The problem is that I cannot do speedtests where I pass the 1 Gbps.
Code:
Speedtest by Ookla
Server: Vodafone IT - Milan (id: 4302)
ISP: Telecom Italia
Idle Latency: 11.75 ms (jitter: 0.11ms, low: 11.61ms, high: 11.91ms)
Download: 869.52 Mbps (data used: 735.7 MB)
33.05 ms (jitter: 22.91ms, low: 12.50ms, high: 966.51ms)
Upload: 979.45 Mbps (data used: 1.0 GB)
15.34 ms (jitter: 1.25ms, low: 11.47ms, high: 24.54ms)
Packet Loss: 0.0%
On Proxmox the board appears to negotiate at 2.5:
Code:
root@pve:~# ethtool enp1s0

instead on lshw the strange thing is that it is reported as 1gbps capacity and among the "capabilities" there is maximum 1gbps

Doing a test with iperf3 between my server and router (the only two 2.5gbps elements) it seems that I can pass the 1gbps lmit

That said, shouldn't I pass the 1gbps in the speedtests as well? what am I missing? could the problem be on OpenWRT or ONT?
The cable from the router to the ONT?
I would like to add that I have a mini picie card with two ssd's attached.
