ISSUE SOLVED, USER ERROR, PLEASE DENY
Problem: FreeBSD 11.2-release on a Thinkpad x200 (wifi card replaced with AR9285), flashed with Coreboot, has a drastically slowed network speed and develops packet loss. ICMP and HTTP traffic over both wifi and ethernet fluctuates from regular (20ms ping) to slow (400ms ping) with 20-40% packet loss.
Tried:
Alternating to known-working ethernet connection from wifi - continued packet loss and slowdown
Forcing single stack networking (ipv4 only) - continued packet loss and slowdown
Checking SWAP for potential system bottleneck - SWAP is empty.
Disabling firewall - no firewall on system
Checking system interrupts - system interrupts occur in normal amounts
Disabling powerd - continued packet loss and slowdown
Notes:
Install is around half a year old. Install was not used between initial installation and present issue appearing, but initial install did not have this issue.
Desktop connected through ethernet running FreeBSD 11.2-release does not have this issue. Using the same ethernet cable as the desktop does not solve this issue.
