Hi pfsense community - I successfully got pfsense running in Hyper-V on Win Server 2012. But, found that the download speed on my Internet connection was severely degraded. When using my other router / firewall vs pfsense on hyper-v, the download speed went from 20 Mb down to 2 Mb down respectively.
I utilized the Hyper-V legacy network adapters as instructed in a tutorial found on a pfsense forum. I used two NICs: 1. Broadcom integrated 1 Gb NIC with Hyper-V switch turned on visible to host and guest OS for the LAN 2. Intel Pro 1000 PCI Express NIC virtualized switch with Hyper-V to restrict access to the Guest OS only for the WAN The download speed as mentioned was severely impacted by a factor of 10. But the upload speed seemed to do alright staying at about 4 mb before and after. Suggestions? Is it just the crappy Broadcom integrated NIC causing trouble, the hyper-v switches, or is it the legacy network card driver that Hyper-V uses? Thanks. -Brad
