Hi there, I have a DL160e G8 with 2 x E5-2450L running WS 2016 with Hyper-V role and all drivers/firmware up to date, now I have 3 vm`s, pfsense , nextcloud and a WS 2016 with VPN role

The problem I have is with the WS 2016 VPN that is set up with L2TP and all works well besides the speed, currently pfsense has from my ISP 1000/500 Mb/s bandwidth and clients downloading without VPN from nextcloud it caps the 500Mb/s upload. After connecting to the vpn server I only get 120-160 Mb/s per client and if I connect another client to the vpn I get another 120-160 Mb/s so I suspect the VPN server is the bottleneck, the vpn server has only 1 NIC and I tried disabling VMQ/RSS/Flow/offload etc and nothing changed same speed.

Is there something I can do or this is the MAX speed of WS 2016 VPN / connection
