Hi,
I have ordered a dedicated server ar SYS (So You Start) but have a terrible network speed to my office.
When downloading something from the hyperviser (VMware ESXi 5.5) or vm to my office, I only get like 10Mbps (I have a 200Mbps line at the office).
This is also the case when I download to another location.
I've contacted the SYS support and they proposed to test with their Rescue OS.
So I did and I got good results: upload and download speed were good so they could no longer help me as 'it was not their fault'...
I've tested on the hyperviser itself and the network speed to my office is also slow from there so it's not only from a vm.
Download speed to the hyperviser on the other hand is very good.
I've also disabled TSO already:
ethtool --show-pause vmnic0
Pause parameters for vmnic0:
Autonegotiate: on
RX: off
TX: off
Somebody has had the same issue? Any ideas what I'm missing here?
