We had a switch in b/w Pfsense and Colo uplink. we even removed that switch
and directly plug the cable with pfsense interface. but still getting the
same low bandwidth.
is it a good idea. to install two new interfaces of 100Mbps and set them to
Auto instead of making it static 100Base TX full dublex out of Gig
Interfaces. ?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Yousuf
