HA Wan speeds are slow

Hello , i have setup 2 FGT 200's in HA mode , active/standby

our wan 1 connection is 200 Mbps download 

 

When i run a speed test i am only getting about half. AKA 100 Mbps download

 

i have the WAN connection and the 2 FGT WAN ports connected to a Cisco switch with the 3 switch-ports in isolated vlan . 

 

did i miss anything? Does that sound like the correct configuration?

Ok, do you have some UTM Feature on your policy ( App Control, AV, IPS ..... )

 

What's your hardware? A 200B, 200D, 200E ?

For testing purpose can you try to disable all this feature on the policy (or create a new one only fromyour computer ip) and do a speed test again? Normally the lowest throuput of your device should be 820 Mbps but datasheet and real life are not the same.

Does you WAN connection connected to a 1GB port or 100MB port? Do you have some UTM features on your firewall policy?
