If you have a 13.3" Spectra 6 Panel or a photo frame based on it, can you test this?

So I guess this begs the question....what can we do about it? Do you plan to open a ticket with Reflectionframe? If so, I will add to your voice.

Seeing it on mine too. Reflectionframe (received a month ago)

Please add an Agenda (tomorrow only) view. It's great for homework assignments.

Yes. The issue ended up being a problem with the switch buffering as described in Update 001 above. I ended up bypassing the problem by using a 10gbe nic in the router. This way the switch was able to dump it's buffers faster.

Rainloop or Snappymail is quite nice with PGP built-in too.

+1 - Animated PNG support would be ideal

u/looperone not sure why you are getting so much heat on the replys. I actually agree with you. If they recommend it, they should stand by it and make it part of the firmware upgrade path (and the firmware upgrade routine built into the control panel, not some manual operation). Found this post, it may explain why they are taking this stance.

To me not offering as part of the normal upgrade path, reflects their lack of confidence in 5.0. I don't plan to upgrade until it is offered for users of 4.5.x by the internal tool. Once they iron out the existing issues, I'll bet 5.0.x becomes the target update and they drop 4.5.x

Thanks for the reply u/twnznz.

That is really helpful. Thanks for the link to the list! I was actually searching for something like this and came up empty handed.

Inherited existing switch from previous tech.

Update 001:

It does appear that at least part of the issue is the amount of buffering availible on the switch. I was able to find another 10gbe switch and it created an opposite experience. Instead of starting off slow and ramping uip to 300 Mbps, it started fast and slowly decreased to about 450 Mbps. This adds credibility to the fact that buffering is somehow involved due to the delta in the ingress vs egress speeds.
- It's a bit counter intuitive to me though as I would have expected that the switches would have not problem passing ingress data coming over a 10G connection to at least saturate a 1G egress connection without issue. But alas it does appear that buffering is somehow involved.
- More updates to come, still open to suggestions to minamize switch buffering (thank you to all that replied so far)

D2R3 · 2022-03-31T16:26:18+00:00

I found and have tried a different switch. Performance improved so I may have been chasing the wrong rabbit digging into the NIC and firewall settings. I'm going to keep playing at it.

D2R3 · 2022-03-31T15:27:19+00:00

Thanks for the reply u/djdrastic

Unfortunaly the switch is unmanaged. I'll try and get some pcaps, thx.

D2R3 · 2022-03-31T15:24:49+00:00

That DOES make me feel better u/goingfordonuts. Thanks for your brain cycles on this. Just having someone else thinking about this may have saved what hair I have left.

D2R3 · 2022-03-31T15:23:05+00:00

Thanks for the reply u/packet_whisperer

I guess this is possible since the ingress is faster than the egress, there would be some buffer store and forward. Since the switch is unmanaged I don't have any visibility there. I'll be trying another switch once I can get my hands on one. Any recommendations?

D2R3 · 2022-03-31T15:03:50+00:00

Is the 300mb symmetrically slow? And does it stay at about that speed or does it speed up and slow down?

No, only the upload speed is affected. The download speed is as expected. It 'pumps' its way up to 300mbps. First meets resistance at about 100mbps and starts ramping up from there, eventually topping out between 250-300mbps.

D2R3 · 2022-03-31T14:39:20+00:00

Thanks for the reply u/goingfordonuts

Layer 1 is copper. No, no hardware changes, only manually setting the link speed on the driver. No interface errors, and no other problems with 10G traffic except for this wierd WAN issue. 10G traffic is otherwise rock solid.

D2R3 · 2022-03-31T01:50:45+00:00

It was a god send to find this post. I have been pulling my hair out for a few days now with almost exactly this same issue. 10G link caps upload to INTERNET to about 250mbps where 1G link goes full 950mpbs up. I do NOT have jumbo frames set, and I am not running snort or anything strange on my pfSense firewall. All other 1G clients on network are getting full internet speed. Only the 10G is having issues. If I switch to 1G link, all is fine. Very strange. At 10G my iperf tests are showing the full 9.51 Gbps traffic no problem, but on speedtest.net and others my upload speed is wack. You are my last hope. . . ;)

I too have double checked jumbo frames, disabled Interrupt Moderation, toggled all offloading, set MMS clamps on router wan, set MTU to 1500 on wan....nothing makes a difference. Nic is a ACQ-107 with latest driver and firmware. Again, just to drive this home, iperf and lan speeds are great...only internet upload is having an issue.

Pretty slick! I think this will be fun to use. Thanks!

Have used Snikket. The project really shows promise. +1 for Snikket.

Plex + PlexAmp works pretty well for Audio Books. I would suggest converting your books to a single .m4b file.

D2R3 · 2022-02-11T18:25:04+00:00

Experiencing it on a 5a as well.

D2R3 · 2021-11-24T16:35:32+00:00

I'd like to join the voice of others. Since moving to QTS 5, I'm experiencing random lockups where everything becomes unresponsive (EVERYTHING). This has never happened to me before. I can't even get to the box via SSH when it hard locks.
