Hello,

I'm asking for your help, because I'm sincerely lost.

With a Windows KVM, I have 200-400Mbps instead of 1Gbps. My connection is perfect on the LXC, but on my KVM, despite all the options I could change :
- Network card
- Firewall disabled
- Drivers reinstalled, and up to date
- IP configuration correct

I still have an abnormal connection. On the main NODE, no problem, the speed is 1Gbps. What bothers me a bit is that I will soon be able to upgrade to 10Gbps. So it's a bit annoying to be stuck on 400Mbps.

Thanks in advance,
Rémi.

Hi,

- Have you tested another OS (like Linux) and how tested it?

- How is your Windows VM config look like?

- Could you please post your network configuration (cat /etc/network/interfaces) also the output of pveversion -v as well
 
Hello,

I'm sorry for the delay in responding. I have been very busy the last few weeks.

Here is the information requested:

- Have you tested another OS (like Linux) and how tested it?
Yes, I even know someone who has the same problem as me (Debian, Pfsense, ..)

- How is your Windows VM config look like?

Hello,

Can you share how you tested the network performance, which tool are you used for the testing?
