Hi, I have a Proxmox server (R5, 16gb ram, 256gb ssd) with PfSense and other vm on it. I don't know why, but Speedtest have both upload and download results around 10mb/s. I have 1Gbit connection.
Internet -> PfSense inside Proxmox (wan vmbr0, lan vmbr1) -> Proxmox -> devices

I have done a Speedtest inside PfSense and have 800 mb/s download and 100 mb/s upload. Even if I connect rj45 cable to LAN port, I have the same result on my laptop.

I'm try to figure out why my proxmox host and lxc have Speedtest around 10mb/s (with iperf it show 40gb bandwitch). In the screen I have opened host shell and one lxc shell. On PfSense I tried disabling/enable hardware offload but nothing changed.

What version of the speedtest-cli do you use? IIRC there is some problem with it, reporting wrong values.
I'm using version 2.0.2 , there is a bug in that version?
Anyway today I have done a apt update && apt upgrade and pve-headers was updated. Now only on the host the download passed from around 10 to 60 mb/s. Download remain around 10 mb/s, in the lxc container after some update Speedtest remain around 10mb/s in up and down.
