After updating to 10.6.8 internet browsing very slow
After doing the update 10.6.8 internet browsing became very slow on safari, chorme and firefox. Is there a solution to this problem.
Had the same problem
I then added some DNS servers to my network configuration and now speed is back to normal (pre 10.6.8)
This is how to add DNS servers
Find some IP address of a DNS server either from your Internet Provider or use one or more of these:
http://theos.in/windows-xp/free-fast-public-dns-server-list/
Test one or more DNS IP addresses by using nslookup
Open terminal (cmd + space type terminal)
In the terminal type
nslookup nasa.org 12.13.14.15
where 12.13.14.15 is the DNS IP server address you want to test
If it works it will respond:
Server: 192.168.1.1
Address: 192.168.1.1#53
Name: nasa.org
Address: 208.73.210.48
Now add one or more valid DNS IP address to the network settings:
In Systems settings / Network / Advanced choose the DNS tab
Press the + button and type the IP address of a valid DNS server
Press OK and then Apply
Now your browser should be back to its usual speed :-)

hi,my name is kutan.since i updated ios7 on my ipad;internet got very slow,i can not open facetime no more,i can not download or update anything from apple store! so this is just redicilous! please any help?
It is hardly Apple's fault that Epson can't/won't update their driver, but at least Epson suggest that you use the Gutenprint driver, which in any case is far better that what Epson offer.
You can get it here:
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/
You can download the latest version from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-print/
Have you downloaded the recent Apple update to Epson drivers?

At uni I need to run proxy on 'auto detect mode' but then at home/work this mode makes my internet browsing very slow. Can I do something about this without having to change settings every time I change locations? running V3.6.8 on OSX
You can look at these extensions:
*FoxyProxy: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2464
*QuickProxy: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1557
*SwitchProxy: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/125 -
After updating to OS X Mavericks, internet USB dongles topped working. Many other users have faced the same problems. Can someone please help me out? I am unable to find online help.
Sourcing Drivers for dongles when upgrading OS is a nightmare whether its osx or windoze. It takes the likes of Huawei ages to produce new versions. I strongly recommend getting a portable wifi (mifi) which will work with any device and sits in your pocket not sticking out the usb port where it gets broken. Recommend Huawei E5756

HI FRIENDS,
i have one firewall model number sg300 i configured each and everything
but after configuration internet working very slow.if i want to open any website it is taking 5 min .i connected
my lease ling directly in this device.
please help me....
Thanks,
MadhukarHi Madhukar,
It seems that it is not a hyper-v issue .
For troubleshooting this please use your computer to access internet directly (without firewall ).
If it works well , you may go over the configuration of the firewall .
Also you can contact the hardware vendor .

Firefox browser very slow signing in and moving from one website to another
firefox browser very slow signing in and opening different websites.
== Operating system ==
Windows xpHello BJ.
This kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
#run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe-mode] to disable all extensions, themes and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins, themes or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
#update all extensions, themes and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#disable all extensions, themes and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
#enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. Also, try the theme you want to have installed so see if that is what's causing the problem. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension/theme, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
#you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons. If you want to keep using those problematic add-ons, please contant their author for support.
Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
#try reinstally Firefox. No data will be lost. You can get the latest version for free at [http://www.getfirefox.com/ getfirefox.com]. If that doesn't fix the problem, proceed;
#do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
#disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix your issues with Firefox, proceed;
#check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable them to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't work, proceed to the following point;
#clean up your OS registry, using appropriate software. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly. -

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Internet is very slow but says i have a good connection ?
My internet is very slow but yet i have a good connection please help
Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If the answer is no, do that now and see whether there's any change.
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same?
What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference? -
IOS 6 upgrade prevented Youtube from working and internet is very slow
Since I upgraded to ios6, the internet is very slow and youtube stopped working. Tried to download youtube app from google in itunes but it has not been working. Used to love my iphone 5 but now very disappointed. At this point I'm considering to return the phone. Tried using youtube in safari but nothing. Any help is appreciated.
If you JUST updated it, may be that Software Update is still downloading pending updates. Since Mountain Lion does that thru the App Store, so you can start that up and check in Update/Purchases/Check for Unfinished Downloads...
Or you can start up the Activity Monitor in Utilities, click on the Network tab and if you see a solid green line pegging the roof, means the kitty is downloading stuff for all it's worth.
Default setting is to automatically check for and download any available updates. Adjustable in System Preferences / Software Update. -
After upgrading to mountain lion my mac is very slow?
Hello
After upgrading to mountain lion my mac is very slow
It was starting in 10 seconds and shuting dow in 5 seconds and now it's taking more than one minute to start it or shut down it and everything is slow
why????????/
ThanksFirst, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
Take these steps when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting. -

You are right the newer pc, as long as it is hardwired and free of any spyware malware and not unusually high cpu usage, should perform better. Is it running high usage?
