Default should be 1 Gbit, is this possible? I assume a lot of people forget about changing this and then they got bad performance due to 100mbit. > The 100mb is not the bandwidth limitation.

It might require some simple qemu virtio changes like like vlan filtering and tag on/off options. Regards, Dor
