Title: Slow Internet using 2.5.1 Post by: pevans_om on Tuesday 29 May 2012, 09:03:06 pm Hi
I'm quite disappointed with the upgrade to 2.5.1. I did a fresh install of 2.5.1 because the upgrade didn't work for me. Since installing this new version our Internet has been very slow. We use the proxy and content filter and I have the outgoing firewall set to block port 80 and 443, so that I can force the users to use the proxy when browsing. Response times when browsing are very slow though. If I disable the proxy the speed goes back to normal. I have now reinstalled 2.4 and the browsing speeds are perfect (using exactly the same firewall and proxy rules.) Does anyone have an explanation for this?

could be related, in that dns lookups seem to be blocked by the firewall rules interzone. adding rules to allow do not work, wether you use port forward or interzone rules, it wont let the traffic through. slow proxy could also be the proxy timing out on lookups. just a guess really. regards peter Title: Re: Slow Internet using 2.5.1 Post by: m.miegielsen on Wednesday 06 June 2012, 07:05:54 pm Setting the following values in /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf.tmpl:
Code: maxchildren = 400 Source: bugs.endian.com/view.php?id=4350 (http://bugs.endian.com/view.php?id=4350) Title: Re: Slow Internet using 2.5.1 Post by: mrkroket on Thursday 07 June 2012, 02:16:03 am No, you must replace /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf.tmpl template file.
The /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf file is always rewritten so any changes are deleted. Title: Re: Slow Internet using 2.5.1 Post by: cmateski on Sunday 10 February 2013, 09:35:54 am Could someone please confirm if this fixed the problem.
