Hi
I'm running a UTM installation on a HP microserver at home to protect the network and ensure the kids don't go places they shouldn't.
The problem I have is the impact the UTM is having on network throughput and pings.
I'm running 9.104. The dashboard says the CPU is <20% and 30% of 4Gb memory is in use.
On the broadband side of the UTM I get the following results with speedtest.net:
Ping 10ms
Download 69Mbps
Upload 16.1Mbps
On the network side of the UTM these figures become:
Ping 276ms
Download 34Mbps
Upload 10Mbps
I can live with the drop in upload/download speeds but the ping is causing much ear ache from the PS3/Xbox playing community in the house.
Am I just expecting too much from the (admittedly inexpensive) hardware? Any suggestions for how to improve those pings?
Many thanks
