Why am I only running at gigabit speeds

Featured Replies

Hey all,

 

Just had a fiber line installed (3g internet symmetrical) and I put in a new 10g switch and had a new ethernet cable ran from my router to the switch. It is plugged into the 10g port in the router. I installed a 2.5g card in my unraid server (originally purchased a 10g card but did not have a pcie port left in my server for it) and the unraid gui says I am running at 2500 Mbps.

 

The problem is I am only getting gigabit speeds on my docker. I am using the speedtest tracker docker to test my speeds.

 

Before anyone asks, this server is remote from me and I do not have access to a device on this network to run pfsense. If that is absolutely required to diagnose this I will only be able to do it in a few months.

 

Can anyone see anything in my posted log files that could be causing me not getting maximum speeds?

 

Thank you for the help as this is driving me insane.

Is it doing test to internet?  Most ISP modems and routers are 1G ports.  Some have a 2.5G port thou but one mine I had to set it up in the firmware.

I have 1 10g port on the router which I have set in the settings at 10g so I’m not sure it’s that. 
 

It could be though because I don’t remember the switch lighting up showing a 10g connection was made. 
 

if I login directly to the router I see the port I’m plugged into set at 10g.

Post the output from this:

 

wget -O /dev/null --progress=dot:mega http://cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test

That should have resulted in something like this, to test WAN speed outside docker:

Don't know what to tell you. Ive run that command many times and Im getting the same output. I seem to be getting that Length: unspecified [text/html] error that is not in your output.

  • Community Expert

🤷‍♂️ That always worked for the people I asked to do it, though, there's haven't been many yet.

I found another random test file.

So looks like the WAN is limited to gigabit.

  • Author

Correct. Figuring out why has been a problem.

  • Author

After doing some more diagnostics I'm pretty sure this isn't an unraid problem and that the issue is the port on my router is negotiating to gigabit...

I just wanted to make sure it wasn't docker limiting the speed.

Most likely
