Have to wait for 5.x kernel.

Which i ASSUME will be Unraid 6.8 beta series

Cool thanks for the quick reply! I’ll go from 6.7 to the 6.8 beta for my next upgrade then.

Does this update have drivers for 9900k gpu?

Those speed test don't mean much though... I was on 1gb/50mb up before and I could get 90mb/s with usenet.. I switched providers..
1.5gb/1gb.... I was getting 80mb/s.. now i'm around 60mb/s.. <-usenet

Usenet on the desktop is getting about 100 MB/s. On the Unraid server, it is getting about 25 MB/s. Both of which are reasonably consistent with the speed test results

Could be a peering issue with the ISP "that's what I think my problem is".. I have an i5 from 2012.. that 8gb of ram that can pull 1gb...

I don’t think so. The desktop on the same network can pull 1gbps without any issues. WiFi devices are consistently getting 600mbps. So it’s specific to this server

Update: I just tried using an ubuntu live image on the same machine, and it also had slow speed test speeds (yet somehow fast xfinity speed test speeds).

 

I tried changing ethernet cables and ports on the router, but nothing changed.

 

So it doesn't look like this is an Unraid issue after all. It's a hardware issue of some sort. Not sure exactly what is wrong since the speeds are constrained via integrated and pcie gigabit network ports. I guess it's time for a new mobo, ram, and cpu? This setup is about 6 years old after all.

I just tried rolling back to 6.67 to see if speeds are better on that version, but they were not. 

 

I also upgraded to a 1.25Gb NIC, and that got my speed up to 900-1050 mbps inside firefox using Xfinity's speedtest.

With speedtest.net inside firefox, I get 365 mbps. 

But the new NIC had no effect on the host speeds.

Same issue... I average out around 55Mb/s
My win 10pc can do 92Mb/s

In firefox on unraid, speedtest.net.. I get 940mbps/940mbps
I have a 1.5gb fiber connection..

I was getting around 70Mb/s on unraid, but since 6.7 and previous beta's it's been slow

Interesting. I hadn't thought to try speedtest in a firefox container. I just tried it and got about 850 mbps. 

Close but not quite there. Also not clear why a successive speedtest to the same server using the unraid speedtest plugin got 790 mbps (and one right after that got 450).

Hoping someone can help me figure this out.

 

Recently, I upgraded to 1gb/40mbps internet. 

On my desktop that is wired to the router, I'm getting consistent speedtest results of about 940 mbps. Even wifi devices are getting about 600 mbps. 

On my unraid server that is wired to the same router, I'm getting speedtest results (via the plugin) that vary from 400-780 mbps (and usenet maxes out at about 250 mbps). 

If I run "wget --output-document=/dev/null http://speedtest.wdc01.softlayer.com/downloads/test1000.zip", I consistently max out at about 720 mbps with an average of about 580 mbps. 

 

I've disabled all bonding/bridging, and I've tried using another 1gb intel ethernet pcie card with no change in results. 

 

Any thoughts on what's causing the performance hit to my unraid server? Should I try a 10gb pcie card to see if it resolves the issue? 

I'd like to get consistent 900+ mbps, and at least 500 mbps on usenet.
