Very poor RED performance on new install

I’m new to IPFire and just got it installed and running. Green seems to be working fine but there are major problems with Red. It is extremely slow if it works at all. Pings to external address have a very high failure rate. Both CPU and RAM utilization is very low so it does not appear to running out of resources. Anyone have any thoughts on what the issue is?

Question two. Red is on DHCP and thus is using the ISP’s DNS servers. Is there a way to set the DNS to servers of my choice in place of the IP’s?

TIA

The “Domain name system” page in the WUI

Very important that this works.
