Is this result from
Internet - modem - IPFire - computer ?

45

Yes it is. Do you want me to go there from somewhere else?

I saw this IP above and in the ifconfig.log file:
inet 71.196.*.*

But the SpeedGuide results show:
IP address: 67.166.x.xxx

That just seemed odd to me…

I’ve been switching bridge mode on and off. The public IP provided changes each time.

In addition, the request for the SpeedGuide results came in when bridge mode was off. If you’d like it rerun with bridge mode on, I can do that.

I believe we have discovered the primary cause of the dropouts and that is IPFire logging. Until we get a handle on calming that down, I might as well run with bridge mode off and “quietly double NAT”.

While the current IPFire hardware has way more memory (8GB) and disk space (915GB) than is needed, there’s little need for capturing a massive amount of logs.

Yes, please
