Re: NPF/interface tuning? shell unusable on gateway

[David Young <dyoung%pobox.com@localhost>]

Sometimes, because of "buffer bloat," really bad things happen if the
WAN and LAN speeds are badly mismatched.  But your findings don't point
directly at buffer bloat.

Are there any packet drops or other errors? `sysctl net.interfaces`,
`sysctl net.inet6.ip6.ifq`, `sysctl net.inet.ip.ifq`, and `netstat -dvI
re0; netstat -dvI re1` may be revealing.

What link speed is negotiated on WAN and LAN ports?
Is any flow-control negotiated?

It sounds like the LAN is quite slow?  I may have misunderstood.  Is the
LAN all wired or is there any wireless involved?
