Description

Good day everyone,

I'm just getting internet access speeds too slow on a 100 Mbps connection. Webpages take up to 50 seconds to load wether with Web+ or QupZilla.

Haiku Rolling Version:

~> uname -a
Haiku shredder 1 hrev52203 Aug  9 2018 21:12:44 x86_64 x86_64 Haiku

Ethernet chip:

~> listdev | grep "net"
device Network controller (Ethernet controller) [2|0|0]
  device 8168: RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller

Wired network only. No wireless available. DCHP does not connect at all. It stucks at "configuring"

Ping times match those of Linux on the same Bare Metal. 53-55 ms to reach Haiku-os.org. It also happens in the Virtual Machine. Pings are ok, web browsing is slow and takes ages to load pages, and even HaikuDepot takes time to load and install apps. Only software updater "seems" to be fine.

Good day everyone,

Inside VBox, with network set to "Intel PRO Desktop"; the results are:

~> uname -a
Haiku shredder 1 hrev52316 Sep  7 2018 20:25:33 x86_64 x86_64 Haiku

Network:

~> listdev | grep "net"
device Network controller (Ethernet controller) [2|0|0]
  device 100e: 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller

Inside VBox network is working under DHCP address assingment. So basically, Haiku uses the routing table set inside the Host (Xubuntu).

When runing Haiku on BM (same hardware as Xubuntu and identified in the previous post) the routing table does not hold more than 3 entries, which I presume is the cause for the slow down. Also DHCP does not work at all on BM in Haiku (it works on Xubuntu).

Pictures added relate to a download test carried. Getting Haiku anyboot ISO, in Xubuntu, HaikuVB and Haiku BM to check if there is real speed difference. It is obvious that HaikuBM is slow accessing internet, most likely due to the routing thing, I presume.

DHCP problems are a known issue. If it works in VirtualBox, then it may just be that your network controller driver from FreeBSD is slow.

Thanks waddlesplash. I'll keep checking to identify better the source of the problem. Regards, RR

Please retest under a recent nightly.

Good day @waddlesplash, I will do. As soon as I fix the dual boot, because I broke it and now can't start Haiku. This weekend will fix it and retest with a recent update. Thanks for your efforts! Regards, RR

Well, a bit late. But now it does not seem that slow as before, and DHCP works properly. Sorry for the delay. I'm checking all tickets I opened in order to close those that can be closed. This one, as of today, can be closed. Thank you very much.
