DSL throughput slow. Is it the firewall?

[thefronny]

Actually, I think it's my machine's NIC (re0) but is there any kind of "common" pf rule mistake that can slow down throughput to any substantial degree?

thanks,

I dragged this old post up because, a few days after release, I upgraded my firewall to 5.1 and there has been a substantial improvement in throughput. The wireless access point has stopped dropping connections as well (the hostap work in 5.1 was actually why I upgraded).

Tip 'o the hat to all the OpenBSD folks for their work on 5.1; it has made a BIG difference for my network.
