Chino Hills, CA - FIOS is very slow - started 2 weeks ago and still not fixed.

In Chino Hills, CA, FIOS used to be excellent. For the past 2 weeks it has been a dog. It's like dial-up. Just look at my trace route below. Do you think that's acceptable? I don't know what ..... verizon-gni.net is but seems to be the culprit. After that ... ALTER.NET is also slow.  It's like going back to the stone age for me.  Can anyone who knows what's going on pls help. i contacted FIOS support, opened a ticket.  I've been asked to reset my router, even bypass the router and connect my PC directly to the wall outlet and I still get the same problem. My friend in the same city a few miles away has the EXACT same problem so it's my router nor her router. Something is terribly wrong but I can't get straight answers from FIOS tech. My connection is like my TimeWarner cable connection before - Slow and unpredictable. So much for fiber optic... I think i actually have twisted pair dial-up the way this is going!!!

  • Since upgrading to 6.0 this morning my internet is very slow, Firefox keeps crashing and will not shut down.

    See the above question. Is my operating system 10.6.8 unable to handle the new upgrade and should I go back to the previous Firefox and Adobe Flash I was previously using. I never had these problems before and now every time I use my internet today, I am having major problems.

    about:crashes only lists crashes that you have reported using the [[Mozilla Crash Reporter]] which comes up after a crash. Because there are so many possible reasons for a crash, getting the crash ID really helps volunteers find the cause quicker.
    That doesn't mean we can't help without a crash id. :-) No crashes here, but I'm also on Snow Leopard and using Firefox 3.6.6.
    Are you using Firefox 3.6.6? The most common cause of crashes on Mac is the Flash plugin. Are you using the latest version of Flash? You can check at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    Do you remember any specific circumstances about when the crash occurred? What sites you were on?

  • I am having a problem with very slow start up after expanding RAM on my 2009 Mac Pro.

    I am having a problem with very slow start up after expanding RAM on my 2009 Mac Pro (8 Core 2.93GHz). When I run the Mac Pro with 2 x 2Gb RAM it takes 4 seconds before the gray screen, chime and spinning wheel appear.However when I expand the RAM to 20GB the grey screen and chimes appear after a long 20+ second black screen.
    The RAM modules are paored  2 x 4GB Crucial CT51272BA1339.M18FMR and  6 x 2GB SAMSUNG M391B5673FH0-CH9, all DDR3 ECC.
    Reading articles on the internet, I thought it may be damaged RAM modules, but I have completed memtest and all are okay. I have tried changing the pairs around and if I use any paired 2 modules the Mac Pro starts normally, only when I try running more than 2 modules the delayed start up happens. (black screen 20 Seconds)
    I also have tried PRAM and SMU resets after changing the RAM setups, and the issues always occurs when I have more than 2 modules. As you can see I have 6 SAMSUNG modules and even with identical modules the issue happens, when increasing the RAM to more than 2 modules.
    The Mac Pro runs fine after the start up screen and can see all the modules, but has anyone else come across this issue, or have any ideas as to why my Mac Pro is taking 20 seconds to start up with 20 GB RAM?

    Hi there. Thanks for your comments.
    I have tried all the different combinations of RAM setup, and as stated in my initial topic, the Mac Pro boot up time only slows when I have more that 2 modules. Where I place these does not seem to make a difference.
    I have taken the Mac Pro to an Apple Reseller technician yesterday and they where not able to find any RAM errors. Apparently the boot up time is within Apple's acceptable parameters for this set up.
    Could anyone that is running a Mac Pro 2009 with more that 4 modules of RAM, please let me know if the boot up time is normal. ( the time it takes from pressing the power button to seeing the gray screen around 16 - 20 seconds)
    Or is anyone else having the same issues?
    thanks for your responce

    When my Firewire 800 drive is in sleep mode, when I start up an app like MS Excel or Addressbook. I get a spining wheel and a delay before the app launches. Any ideas? Never happened in 10.6.

  • Very slow start when initially entering the service ticket in Web UI (2007)

    We seem to encounter a very slow start when initially entering the service ticket in Web UI (2007). Once in all seems speedy enough. I don't have my access arrange for the Service marketplace (OSS notes) yet so can't check if there is a known solution, which I suspect there is. Has anyone encountered this problem and possibly resolved it?.
    Jason.

  • B210a is very slow started to print wirelessly

    I recently purchased a B210a which I'm using wirelessly from my Apple iPhone, iPad, and a Mac. It takes over a minute to start printing from any of these devices. I've now connected a cable from my iMac and it is still very slow starting. Any suggestions?

  • Installing 10.5.6 made Final Cut Pro very slow start up

    After installation of OSX 10.5.6 (combo) , final cut pro 6.0.4 or 6.0.5 is very slow start up the application. I did all kinds of things such : Disc permission, DiscWarrior, Techo tool, but
    it is very very slow to start up. When I re-installed final cut pro, it did start up right away,
    then after restart, again final cut pro starts very very slow.
    Please advice.

    Hi Yuki,
    It's very important to read the information regarding these updates before you install them. If you click the Apple logo top left in your Desktop then click Software Updates, when there is a system update available, there will be a link available for you to click and it will take you to all the information you should peruse before the update. Here is info on the 10.5.6 update. Apparently there are known 3rd party software issues. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3194
    First thing I would is check the disk for errors. You need your restore disk for this.
    Open Disk Utility, in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
    Insert your Mac OS X Install disc in your computer’s optical drive or an optical drive connected to your computer, and then restart your computer. When you hear the startup tone, hold down the C key until you see the progress indicator, which looks like a spinning gear.
    Follow the onscreen instructions until the menu bar appears with the Utilities menu in it, choose Utilities > Disk Utility, click First Aid, and then click the Verify button. If DU reports errors, click the Repair button. When it's finished, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Disk. In the Startup Disk window select MacintoshHD 10.x.x and click Restart.
    If you restart and it's still really slow booting up, you might want to UNinstall FCP. If you do, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions before and after you reinstall it.

  • MacBook Pro 2010 Very Slow Startup for computer and Programs

    My MacBook Pro is very slow start up and sometimes fails to. also when using Safari computer will freeze. when opening and closing programs  it can take up to 15 min. this all started in the last two weeks. I have also had to update Yosemiti a lot  in the last couple weeks. Is there issues with the updates or is there something more going on?

    Post an etrecheck report back here, which may give us some clues.

  • Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags.

    Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags. I've tried everything (e.g virus, defrag, I've created a new profile in "run", etc). I've had my router/line etc all checked and after 2 weeks of cleaning/testing etc its all pointing to Firefox as the problem. Please help as it's driving me nuts.

    I have the exact same problem.
    Not only does it load pages very slowly, sometimes the page will stop for a good 45 seconds and stop loading, only to finish it much later.
    Something is wrong with Firefox 12, it shouldn't be this slow.
    How is that each version is progressively worse than the one before it?.
    Stop releasing so many versions Mozilla, release one that works and build from there.

  • Updated to LR 5.4, images now importing extremely slow. After importing and rendering images are still very slow to go through and develop. No issues in LR 5.3 which was very fast.

    After importing and rendering images are still very slow to go through and develop. No issues in LR 5.3 which was very fast. Canon,Nikon, Leica and Fuji files all rendering slow. iMac 2.9 ghz 16gb RAM OSX 10.8.5. Catalogs and images are kept on external drives. Drives running fine. Really need a fix on this since I'm norally imported and processing at least 4,000 images per LR Catalog. Is there way to revert back to 5.3? I can't use 5.4 is its current state. Thanks.

    Download LR 5.3 and install it
    By the way, lots of people have this complaint about LR 5.4, and the advice I give is to use LR 5.3 unless you need one of the new camera models supported by LR 5.4

    It is very possible that you may have some form of Wi-Fi interference nearby that is preventing your AEBSn from providing a clean RF signal on the 2.4 GHz band.
    I suggest you perform a simple site survey, using utilities like iStumbler, or AirRadar to determine potential areas of interference, and then, try to either eliminate or significantly reduce them where possible.
