I recently went from Verizon 4G to Starlink. I work from home and use a Fortinet Firewall. Verizon worked fine but it had slow speeds all around. If I use ethernet directly into my computer, I get download of 70-100 mbs and upload of 4-7 mbs. Not great, but it works. If I run the ethernet into my Fortinet firewall, I get the same download but the upload gets choked to .01-.03 mbs. Not acceptable. What is the reason for this? My IT guy says it's a Starlink issue since Verizon worked fine through the firewall. I can't find anyway to get Starlink support, so I've turned to this forum. Thanks

I have the same upload issue with Starlink & Fortinet - If I place a fortinet switch between the Starlink and Fortinet Firewall FG60E then the issue is no longer present. I do not want another piece of unneeded hardware in the mix.
