Hello all,

Am facing some difficulty on configuring my VM ?
the internet connection is very slow to point it shows 0 Mbit/s

Code:
speedtest-cli
Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Testing from ISP...
Retrieving speedtest.net server list...
Selecting best server based on ping...
Hosted by du (Abu Dhabi) [490.22 km]: 1800000.0 ms
Testing download speed................................................................................
Download: 0.00 Mbit/s
Testing upload speed......................................................................................................
Upload: 0.00 Mbit/s

but on the other hand LXC shows a speed of 300 Mbit/s

Code:
speedtest-cli
Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Testing from ISP...
Retrieving speedtest.net server list...
Selecting best server based on ping...
Hosted by ETISALAT-UAE (Ajman) [555.95 km]: 60.977 ms
Testing download speed................................................................................
Download: 307.29 Mbit/s
Testing upload speed......................................................................................................
Upload: 105.61 Mbit/s


how can I fix this?
 
That indeed is really slow. Can you run iperf3 from your VM to the PVE host it is running on? What are the results? So
Code:
# on the PVE host
iperf3 -s

# in the VM
iperf3 -c <PVE_IP>

Hello
I tried it but it gives an error
from VM to host >> error - unable to connect to server: Connection refused

Note: I still can ping the host


I tried iperf3 from other lcx I have

Code:
iperf3 -c 192.168.5.3
