Hello all,

 

I have a Unifi Security Gateway running on Vodafone Fibre here and am very happy with it and recommended it to a mate.

 

He is on Spark Fibre and I set it up and it is unusable. Extremely slow internet with connection drops. I am using DHCP with Vodafone but I set up PPPoE on Spark as per their instructions.

 

From a bit of Googling it appears that the MTU settings may be causing the issues and MSS Clamping may need to be set to 1448.

 

Am I on the right track here? Can anyone confirm this setting will fix the problems? I will have to do this remotely via the old modem so it will be a bit of an exercise to set this so am wanting to confirm it before we spend some time on the phone resetting his connection.

 

Cheers, Matt

OK. I has to be a bad unit then. It has the latest firmware. I will get him to return it. Thanks for your help everyone.
