I know this isn't likely the best forum for this question, but please bear with me.

I've been seeing a lot of these iperf comments/questions, and decided to try to track down why my connection to my home firewall seems *so slow*. Installed the package and fired it up, and sure enough - although both ends are reporting they're negotiated at 100Mb/s, I'm only getting ~22Mb, which reeks strongly of 10Mb full-duplex. It's switch-independent - already swapped that out and tried. My next step is to hook a laptop directly up to both machines and give it a whirl (rule out a faulty cable).

In the meantime, is there anything I can do on pfSense to fiddle with autonegotiation settings like I can with ethtool on my Linux machines? I don't have any traffic shaping set up, so I can't see why that would come into play, but I'm all ears here.

*BTW - I noticed a while back that pfSense had my favorite alias 'll'. It "doesn't" now, and looking in root's home directory, it looks like .tcshrc is zeroed out - either it was originally linked to .cshrc or someone's whacked it. Minor bug that should be ironed out before beta, I should think - I'll post a ticket when I get around to it, unless someone beats me to it (fixing or otherwise).
