HE IPv6 Tunnel terrible bandwidth

Hello

I setup a HE IPv6 Tunnel which is "working" so far. I can ping IPv6 Hosts in the internet. The tunnel has very little latency (< 25 ms) and pings are working reliable. HE Server IP is: 216.66.80.98
But I'm not able to get more than 1Kb/s trough the tunnel. The bandwidth of the tunnel is just very very terrible. I tried many different MTU's from 1452 to 1280 and they all didn't seem to make any difference.

I did make a HTTP request via CURL on a Linux box: https://youtu.be/0-BJNQR8UT8
The same happens if I run CURL directly from pfSense (which is connected via PPPoE).

Here are two screenshots demonstrating the issue:

I tried to upload these screenshots here, but it failed with the message "Couldn't access files to upload".

I'm running pfSense 2.3.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) got a IPv4 bandwidth of 50 MBits/s


Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you for your help.

I'm not familiar with the tunnel IP scheme...where is your tunnel located?

Does nobody else have the same problem?

I just tested my IPv6 tunnel with another HE server and it didn't change anything.

The server I used was the one in Frankfurt, DE with the IP 216.66.80.30

Did you tried another server instead of Zurich?
Perhaps try Frankfurt?

I got amazing speeds from Singapore server back in a while.

I tried both Frankfurt and Zürich and they both didn't seem to work "right".

But I guess its an issue on my end.
