very strange slow web access but can be solved by packet sniffer?

Sat Jun 10, 2017 6:05 am

Very strange problem here. I have an EOIP tunnel for traffic to a certain pre-defined server. Ping through EoIP is excellent under 50ms as expected. However web access is quite slow it's like the response packet never got through. But, here's the even stranger part, if I go to Tools/Packet Sniffer and run it on the EoIP interface suddenly web access speed will be perfect as expected. Anyone knows what's going on here? I've been trying to solve this for the last week to no avail.

BTW, it's not just EoIP, happens with VPN connection as well. The local internet connection works fine though.

Here's my config:
[

Hi,

I'm no expert, but I was watching this video https://youtu.be/3LmQYIQ5RoA?t=9m10s and the guy was saying that a fasttrack rule that was not configured properly had similar outcome, but was fixed using tools/torch, because it was disabling fasttrack by slowing all the packets down. Could it be the same cause?

Hope it helps.

Yes, it means you need to turn off or limit the scope of FastTrack.
FastTrack is a shortcut around part of the functionality of the router, and it is temporarily disabled when you run tools
like the Packet Sniffer or Torch. Not all advanced uses can be combined with FastTrack.

Please report this as I now have a case with simular issues but it applies to RDP connections. Need more people that point out fasttrack is now working sometimes on 6.39.x
