Slow 5Ghz wireless speed ?

The throughput will be affect when you enable the Firewall or UTM profiles.
Since the firewall need to check and analyze each packet, therefore,  it will consume numerous performance.

However, on firmware v4.60, we have implement fast forwarding feature which can let performance to reach better level.

The below result in our lab with v4.60

Firmware: v4.60
Go to configuration>System>Advance>Check Fast forwarding 
In our lab test with 1G ISP connection, and tested with speedtest website


On my lab, with enable fast forwarding function, the performance can achieve 531.21Mbps. However, the statistic of throughput may be different by test machine or test process or test environment.

hi charlie,

so the fast forwarding feature will disable/affect the firewall?
any details so far when v4.60 will be available? nevermind, found it in the download area, will test asap.

kind regards

Hi @Harska@Zyxel_Charlie / @hp1 / All

After the update to v4.60 and enabling the Fast forwarding option 
     " Go to configuration>System>Advance>Check Fast forwarding " 

I'm having the correct speed

Wired
       

And wireless 5Ghz
     

Wireless 2.4Ghz
    

So definetly it is a box performance issue... 
If we use all the features the equipments do not handle with a 500Mbps link.

Thank you for your support

@hp1 & @Ydnacp
When fast Forwarding is enabled, essential network service such as NAT,routing,firewall, and VPN work as expected.However, security and logging service such as UTM, web authentication, BWM, and traffic statistic are bypassed.

thank you for your support, i'm getting stable 500/50mbit now with fast forwarding enabled.
