  • unbelievably high session count, slow internet

    My internet connection is extremely slow and seems to be capped around 3mbps of the usual 60 mbps. This happened once before and restoring the firewall to defaults fixed it. This time, I have made no configuration changes. Most alarming, my live session…

  • how is actual Traffic Shaping speed calculated?

    Hello community, I have a user specific traffic shaping rule that guarantees 100kbps and limits to 100kbps. When I run speedtest as that user, I expect 100kbps speed, but I get ~730kbps. If i change limit to 200kbps, I get 1.46mbps. Where is that x7…
  • How to apply a policy to the XG firewall update proces?

    Hi, I am struggling with WAN congestions once the firewall is updating itself (AV patterns, firmware etc.) as it uses the full available bandwidth making any other communication hardly possible. Is there a way to identify that traffic in order to…
  • My bandwidth decreases significantly when I try to use Sophos XG versus Sophos UTM.

    Hi there, searching for a solution to some of Plex server's shortcomings, Sophos products were suggested as perhaps being appropriate. Serving video streams to WAN, I'd like to limit the max bitrate going out to any particular wan address without knowing…
