Extremely Slow Upload Speed

AZinNC
I recently installed UTM 9 Essential Firewall in order to simply move my database server to its own NAT for security compliance.  

Using Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test on the database server:

- The download speed was fine (> 10 Mbps)
- The upload speed was extremely slow (

    I have attached the ifconfig results on both interfaces.  They don't appear to have any errors or collisions.  Do you see anything else that could be the issue?

    Also, I am running this on a VMWare ESXi server.  I had it running on a virtual switch without a vmnic assigned.  During downtime overnight, I am going to move the Sophos VM and database to another virtual switch that hosts another network that is working fine.  I will then restart the Sophos VM and see how that goes.

    Do you have any other suggestions?

    What kind of Virtual NICs do you have configured?  VMXNET2 or VMXNET3 are recommended for best performance.

    If you using the prebuilt VM image, that may be part of the problem --- things may have changed (I haven't used it in a very long time) but the prebuilt image used to be made with NIC type "Flexible" which perform poorly.
