Greetings,
Most cable providers rate limit only when there are too many states at high
speeds. It clould be a combination of the two.
I know at least 2 cable providers who rate limit (drop packets) when you have
over 5k of sessions at 1Gbit speed and don't if the speed is at 100mbit.
Try setting the speed and duplex to 100mbit full duplex and see how it goes
with a lot of states.
That reminds me of the Arris cable modems in .nl where eMule or torrent
traffic with a upload over 1 mbit (of 2) would cause the actual voip
port to fail and unable to call. Intruiging failure before that one was
acknowledged, they ended up rolling out the Motorola Surfboard.
So eventhough the cable modem is effectively a bridge, it did actually
keep state causing hard to diagnose failures and issues.
Also, maybe just a strange thought, but did you check the pfSense LAN
port as well? It could be either port causing the issues, since all
traffic flows through it.
Although IRQ conflicts should really be gone by now, you might try
seating the card in a different slot (if that is possible).
Cheers,
Seth

I've checked all my ports, i highly doubt it's anything but the wan
port, because my old Ethernet circuit that can push around 20mbs never
has a problem, we are always doing around 10mbs and it doesn't act up at
all. With the cable modem i'll do maybe 5mbs and get a lot of packet
loss and high latency.
It's on the old circuit now until my i put a new pfsense in next week,
i'll try all the suggestions then.
