Hello,
I have managed to configure the pfSense firewall to allow BT TV through as per the thread here...
https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=100444.0
I'm trying to find some answers to a subsequent issue that has arisen.
It would seem that the network is now overloaded when I am watching a IPTV channel on BT TV.
The 'Find Out What's On BT TV' channel is SD and runs at about 2M Bits bandwidth and I can just use the internet and communicate with other machines on my network.
If I change to a HD channel at about 9 - 10 M Bits bandwidth, no joy, timeouts. I have left a simple ping from one internal linux ip to another running and the response times jump from 1.5ms to > 8000ms. So this indicates that something is causing massive latency.
My thoughts are the network (LAN) is getting flooded with multicast messages?
Can anyone help with any suggestions as to how to fix it or do more troubleshooting?
