Hi everyone,
I recently had FiOS 75/75 + TV installed. I really wanted to have my Fortinet router out front. The issue I ran in to when moving it to front of the network was slow upload speeds on my wired devices only. The setup was as follows:
ONT > Fortinet > Cisco 3560g > Cisco 1142n AP > Actiontec
The guide and On Demand both worked perfectly.
I did a lot of testing yesterday with it and definitely singled out the Fortinet as the problem when it's on the edge, however, if I move the Fortinet behind the Verizon router everything is good. I've set the Fortinet WAN1 port to 100Mb Full and that just butchers the download speed (~10Mb) and the upload speed never goes higher than 30Mb. The current setup is as follows:
ONT > Actiontec > Fortinet > Cisco 3560g > Cisco 1142n AP
So everything is still taking essentially the same path through the network. Even plugging directly in to the Fortinet yielded bad upload speeds. I'm wondering if there's a negotiation issue between the Fortinet and the ONT. Download speed is unaffected in either setup.
I've reset the Fortinet to factory defaults, powered everything off and back on. Firmware/drivers have been updated. Tried different cables/ports.
I did several chat sessions with Fortinet yesterday and they were unable to come up with anything that would be causing the issue. I have all the UTM stuff turned off there's no other rules in place at this point, just a fresh config.
Any insight would be great.
Thanks!
