Slow internet browsing using Meraki MX-84 firewall

[Daniel23]

Hi Community!

I have a question about firewall MX-84 Series.

When I try to browse any website, the pages are very slow, and sometimes the page I want to access doesn't open. I've already checked my internal bandwidth and DNS settings, and everything is fine.

Do you know what the problem could be?

Best Regards!

How are your uplink settings? And the traffic shaping rules?

[alemabrahao]

By the way, do you also have Threat protection and content filtering enabled?

[Daniel23]

Yes Friend!

both are enabled.

And the traffic shaping rules? do you also have Threat protection and content filtering enabled?

[Daniel23]

I just have two more questions, how many users do you have on average simultaneously on your network and is it possible to test by temporarily disabling AMP?

[Daniel23]

Around 200 users

Yes, but I need to notify it.

Did you look at  the utilization chart of this mx. On the org>  summary page

Thank you, I will review this section.

Just remember that the maximum recommended number is 200 devices for this model (including the VPN client), so you are at the limit and it would be a good idea to check with support how your MX's CPU usage is.

[Daniel23]

I didn't remember that.

Thank you very much for the support.

If you use Chrome, open the developer tools with CTRL+SHIFT+I, go to the network tab, and load a page - what part of the process does it show as being slow?  DNS, TCP setup, TLS, something else?
