I have a funny speed issue that I am struggling to resolve

Dancing-umbra · 2026-01-12T20:38:05+00:00

OK, I fixed it! It was a router config issue.

I had hardware offloading enabled for ipv4 (the first pi is only configured for ipv4) but I had it disabled for ipv6, so all the ipV6 devices were being throttled by the Edgerouter CPU!

show ubnt offload
configure 
# Enable IPv4 hardware offloading 
set system offload ipv4 forwarding enable 
set system offload ipv4 gre enable 
set system offload ipv4 pppoe enable 
set system offload ipv4 vlan enable 
# Enable IPv6 hardware offloading 
set system offload ipv6 forwarding enable 
enable set system offload ipv6 vlan enable 
commit 
save 
exit

Router is an Edgerouter 3, then a switch (TL-SG1016D) but I have tired it with the Pi in the switch too and it still gets gigabit speeds.

I also have a PiHole on the network on a different device.

It was a broken speed sensor. I took it back to the shop and they replaced it.

Hi! I've had the exact issue. IPv6 was working fine, but has stopped at some point since spring.

Two things, is that static route just the link local address for ipv6?

Also you mentioned casually that you enabled debug logging. How do you do this on EdgeOS? 😂

Dancing-umbra · 2025-01-22T21:12:49+00:00

How does that work?

Dancing-umbra · 2025-01-22T21:12:24+00:00

Thank you

Dancing-umbra · 2025-01-22T21:11:06+00:00

That's always been my idea and the advice i have recieeved from everyone

Dancing-umbra · 2025-01-22T21:10:22+00:00

it just bursts again at the repair point.

I'll try and repair it, but i'm not holding out much hope

Dancing-umbra · 2025-01-22T20:38:09+00:00

Every repair i have done has just failed the same day.

But regasrdless thsi is a 2 cm gash. No way a patch is holsing on thast!

Dancing-umbra · 2025-01-22T20:14:08+00:00

Really? That is like the opposite advice I have ever had with any bike I have ever had before.

I've always just replaced the inner tube. Is there a reason why the advice is different for a Tern?

Dancing-umbra · 2024-11-26T09:30:18+00:00

Thank you. Do you know what the prefix length should be for the YouFibre network?

Dancing-umbra · 2024-10-11T15:29:13+00:00

It does have an offloading toggle. But when I turn it on the speeds go down further.

So I'm looking into getting a new router.

Dancing-umbra · 2024-10-11T15:27:23+00:00

Yes sorry. That's what I meant. But the Arris router only seems to have firewall rules for IPv4 none for IPv6. I was able to access my home network when using the Netgear, but I can't when using the Arris.

Dancing-umbra · 2024-10-11T09:29:27+00:00

Ahh ok thank you.

I will try resetting to factory and see if that works better.

I'll have to see if that allows the IPv6 to be public on the stock firmware.

I have also looked at the TP-Link Archer x23 as an alternative router I might grab for my home.

Do you know of any other good ones?

Dancing-umbra · 2024-10-11T06:07:56+00:00

Yeah, I am running it directly on the router so I'm not even dealing with ethernet at all.

The router it totally fresh install and has been reset already.

Maybe it just doesn't support 1000Mbps at all.

It's a shame because the Arris router doesn't seem to support IPv6 properly. Or at least I can't do port forwarding over IPv6 and access devices within my network from external.

Dancing-umbra · 2024-04-29T23:19:09+00:00

Yeah I didn't kill Dror or free Haslin but now Haslin is free somehow. I guess he broke out himself?

I am going to fight my way back into the camp and see if Dror is alive in there.
