The lan ports of my fvs318g do not appear to be operating at the 1gb rate
Hi,
Comcast is delivering 128 mbps to 145 mbps to my wan port. To my minde, this should let the lan ports operat at similar speeds. This is NOT happening. All my computers interfaces are at 1gbps but are only transfering 15 mbps according to several "test my internet" web sites.
This device is listed as 1gb capable. I don't see the reason for the slowness of transfers.
Can anyone help me please?

Hi grgoffe,
Welcome to the community! :)
It seems that what you have an FVS318Gv1 VPN firewall. The FVS318Gv1 has a LAN-to-WAN Throughput of 25Mbps. Kindly check the FVS318Gv1 data sheet here for reference. Since you are subscribed of 128Mbps-145Mbps from Comcast, you need to use a VPN firewall that has a LAN-to-WAN Throughput greater than 145Mbps.
I suggest you either of the following: FVS318Gv2, FVS318N, FVS336Gv3 or SRX5308 VPN Firewall. Access the data sheet below for comparison:
