Title: Slow Browsing with Squid Proxy+content filtering enabled
Post by: fqureshi on Thursday 14 July 2011, 11:08:53 am
I "was" having the slow browsing issue reported at many support forums in regard to Endian firewall.

The fix for this issue is to disable the outgoing firewall and everything will be sweet as. It is the outgoing firewall rules which slows down the speed of the internet. Outgoing rules enables you firewall to interrogate each packet received for external destination hence increasing the response time.

For safe browsing and fast browsing you can delete the rule of traffic forwarding port 80. Leave the rest as it is. It won't inspect the port 80 traffic.

For me it's working well.

I hope it is helpful for others.
