RTL8153 Compile
-
@olivierlambert I have been using the PV host adapter (PV drivers). It comes with the ManagementAgentx64.exe that can be found on the official Xcp-NG.ISO.
After un-installing and using emulation, it works fine, but around 30Mbit. When re-installing the PV drivers I get SSL errors again.
I'm trying to think what the problem could be, the PV drivers? the PV drivers who can't get along with the 2.5Gbe USB attached to the Xcp-NG server?
Isn't Xcp-NG just passing though it's connection to the VM?
Those are the questions I'm asking myself right now and I'll try digging into it on google a bit more.
Really strange that Ubuntu and in my case, Freenas works without problems.

@gskger Changing the MTU didn't help unfortunately
I'm starting to think there is something else going win combination with the PV adapter drivers. -
I don't remember we bundle anything for Windows, @stormi ?

@olivierlambert up to XCP-ng 8.1 we had the installer for management agent in a
client_installdirectory on the ISO as in Citrix Hypervisor installation ISOs. -
HOLY MOLY! I think I fixed it by disabling TCP offloading according to this article:
Internet works without ssl/tls errors! I'm going to check right away if I can get the 2.5Gbit speeds!
EDIT: As of now I get 1.70 Gbits/sec with an Iperf3 test, this is amazing! Not getting the full speed is probably because of VM overhead or the cat5E cables who aren't that shiny anymore.
I want to thank you all for taking the time to help! It must be a pain sometimes! Especially people who revive old threads. BUT I can finally follow my VirtualMachine dreams I had planned for a long time. You guys are amazing, I've been using Xcp-NG for a year and there will be many more years to come!
Merry Christmas! And I hope this thread will help a lot more xcp-ng fans!

Nice
I think we might document this in our doc, maybe in the troubleshooting section! -

@stormi I will try and look into that tomorrow! Thanks guys

That would be wonderful and also helpful for other people having the same issue

@olivierlambert Created a pull request on this matter, I hope it's properly described.
