Hi,
I have a 15K Mbs connection (up/down) to my house (fiber to the home).
I have a Buffalo router that connects to my WAN and then one of the
LAN ports
on this router connects to my IPCOP firewall that is running on a
PII -- 400
MHz box with 64 MB of RAM.
When I do a speed test from my box behind my IPCOP firewall, I get
about 10K
Mbs up/down.
If I move the connection to one of the Buffalo router LAN
connections, I get
the advertised 15K Mbs up/down speed.
So routing traffic thru the IPCOP firewall slows things down quite
a bit. Is
this to be expected?
