I've had my Sophos Home XG Gateway for well over 5 years running perfectly on my Xfinity Blast internet at 300 down and 10 up. I recently upgraded to their gig offering at 1000 down 50 up. My XG seems to be a bottleneck in the equation. I cannot seem to get over 500mbps out of it (it will burst occasionally to 700 but if I take it out of the equation I consistently get 850-950 from my pc.
Tests done so far:
- Turned off all filtering
- Turned off any and all IDS settings
- Turned off my VPN
- Made 1 single rule to pass all traffic
None of these efforts seem to have any affect on the speed, behind my firewall I still consistently get 250 to 350 down with an occasional burst like I said above but extremely occasional.
I've searched the boards and I can't seem to find anything on the limitations of the free Home license. Are there any bandwidth limits?
It's running on a 2nd gen Corei5 with 8gb of RAM and a 500gb SSD. My network card is an Intel 2 port PCIe card
Thanks in advance,
Tom
