I have Sonicwall 2040 Pro, Firmware Version: SonicOS Enhanced 4.2.1.9-20e ROM Version: SonicROM 2.1.0.0

I have nothing but default fw/nat rules/options set as I only made one server public visible

WAN: [NO] Enable 802.1p tagging
Interface MTU: 1500 [YES] Fragment non-VPN outbound packets larger than this Interface's MTU

X0 LAN: [NO] Enable 802.1p tagging

I did not enable BWM on WAN interface therefore I do not have bandwidth management rules in effect at all.

Firewall LAN > WAN 1 192.168.2.200 (serverPC) Private Any Any Allow All
[this entry has DSCP and 802.1p Marking Settings action set to PRESERVE]

I noticed one thing that I not quite understand.

Let's say I have two machines, 1:a desktopPC and 2:a serverPC on the same X0 LAN subnet. ServerPC is visible in public (NAT/Fw rules).

Now: if i'm downloading 1gb file from external server (http://www.thinkbroadband.com/download.html) both to desktopPC and to serverPC at once bandwidth is OK.

but

while i'm downloading 1gb file from external server (http://www.thinkbroadband.com/download.html) to desktopPC and on some point my serverPC starts to sending it's own 1gb file to the world on port:80, my desktopPC active download connection drops nearly to 0b/s and disconnects.

Am I missing someting?

---------------addon: Downstream:10Mbps Upstream:5Mbps

[NO] Enable Gateway Anti-Virus

[NO] Enable Anti-Spyware

[YES] IPS Enabled

only High Priority Attacks Prevent [YES] Detect [YES]

  • what kind of uplink connectivity do you have? If it's something like ADSL with a very low upload bandwith, it might be the start of an explanation. Also do you have IDS and/or Antivirus and/or any ip service inspection activated on the sonicwall? – Olivier S Jan 28 '17 at 11:08

Disabling IPS can solve this kind of problems on sonicwalls
