For traffic routing through my ASA 5505, downloads for all Apple devices, including

  • AppleTV
  • iPad gen 1
  • IMac
  • MacBook Pro

are very slow. speedof.me show less than 1 Mbps download (where I should have 20 Mbps +), yet for any Windows-based device, the download speeds are in excess of 20 Mbps. The Windows device, including the iMac and MacBook Pro machines, are connected via ethernet cable.

Why are Apple devices experiencing such pain? Is it an ASA setting, or something else?

Thanks.
