Show HN: We Fixed UniFi's Slow PPPoE Performance with PPPoE Half-Bridge
TL;DR
ArcBox Labs improved their UniFi gateway's slow PPPoE performance by implementing a PPPoE Half-Bridge configuration, achieving closer to their 5 Gbps connection speed. This solution addresses common issues faced by other UniFi users experiencing similar performance limitations.
✦ Why It Matters
Consider configuring your UniFi device with a PPPoE Half-Bridge to improve connection speeds.
Key Takeaways
- Implement a PPPoE Half-Bridge to offload processing from UniFi gateways.
- Use OpenWrt to configure the offload device for PPPoE dialing.
- Achieve significantly higher speeds, exceeding 5000 Mbps with this setup.
- Consider hardware acceleration options if available for your gateway model.
How It Works
The PPPoE Half-Bridge solution involves a dedicated device that handles PPPoE dialing and DHCP assignment. This device strips the PPPoE header and provides a public IP to the UniFi gateway, allowing it to focus on routing tasks without the overhead of PPPoE processing.
