EXTREMELY SLOW INTERNET WEB PAGE LOAD TIME

ok i have cable internet..ive had this mac for about a year and usually loads a webpage in about 5 seconds..since last week its been taking 5 minutes..i am connected wireless through airport..i figured it was the internet provider companies prb and that it would b fixed..after acouple days i decided to go on the pc laptop today and its zooming across web pages like it should be..but my mac is still having the same prb..everything is updated so i dont know whats going on..anybody having this problem or know how to fix it?

Does this happen with both Safari & Firefox?
What does DSL Reports...
http://www.dslreports.com/stest
report for both?
Have you cleared Caches in Safari?
What ISP is it?
Might try putting these in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Web Server NetworkTopology - Reduce Web Page Loading Times

Hello,
Not sure which forum is best to approach because I think my setup and requirements may fall into several areas of consideration, but here goes. With reference to the diagram below:
Basically I host my own website using IIS on a W7 box that sits behind my Windows Server 2012R2 box that I use as a DNS server with the following roles:
Routing and Remote Access, DNS Server, AD, NAT
What I'm wanting to do is to change my network configuration to the bottom diagram i.e put my webserver in front of the the windows server so that it is internet facing without having to route HTTP requests through my server machine, the objective is to
limit the hardware that HTTP requests need to travel through in order to speed up the web page loading times. I have tried the new preferred configuration but I am actually finding that the web page takes another 10 seconds longer to load with the new configuration.
My DNS server is authoritative for my website domain name, my idea or understanding for the new configuration is the following: (this may be wrong, not sure!)
Someone browses my site i.e makes an initial DNS request for my website, the DNS inquiry is passed through my hardware firewall to my DNS server, the DNS server then points the DNS request to the webserver box, then when an HTTP request for website is received
by my hardware firewall, the firewall redirects the HTTP request directly to the webserver.
I thought that the above new configuration would actually speed up the web page loading response time as the HTTP traffic would no longer have to travel through my DNS server before reaching the webserver and then make its way back to the remote host across
the WAN
Can someone please tell me where I am going wrong with my configuration? thanks in advance

Hi,
Is your website loaded very slow?
If yes, please try to perform a network capture on the client. We can find which part is slow by analysing the capture data.
If the DNS process is slow, please try to use nslookup to verify if it is a DNS issue.
If the HTTP process is slow, please check if there is any tcp retransmission in the capture data.
Best Regards.

Speeding Up Web Page Load Time

I'm wondering what the best way is to significantly increase the amount of time it takes for my pages to load, here is my website:
www.andrew-brinded.co.uk
it is visual and audio heavy and I need users to be able to access these files asap.

I hope you meant decrease your load time!
Optimizing your files before uploading to a server is guaranteed to help as well as giving your site a chance to load in Internet Explorer.

Whats slowing down my page loading times?

So i've been plagued recently with a terrible connection that just won't seem to go away, and has been getting worse.
At first we thought it was the router in our building (out of our control) but apon talking to the other residents (in a floor below and above ours) they've been having no connection problems what so ever. I watched a guy open Google, and it sprang open no problem, no waiting time.
I've since reset my Airport to default factory settings (fearing i've changed a setting I didn't mean to) and created a new Ethernet connection with the default DHCP. I really don't think its an issue with my airport, because even when I plug the Cat 5 straight into my computer, it still loads slow/not at all.
Its not throughput, because i've ran several speed tests on speedtest.net (never failed me before) and both my husband and I are getting 47,000 kb/s download and varying between 400-1100 kb/s upload speeds.
With all of that in mind, we consistently get 403 forbidden, and DNS errors when trying to connect to pages that usually work fine, such as gmail, apple.com and google. Known working sites, and they won't work. If i open a lot of pages, eventually one out of 7 or 8 will work, and when that one works theres no issues with it.
I feel really out of my element, because I'm not sure if its a proxy issue or what, because i don't have a proxy. It seems to come and go, and no one else has issue with it in my building.
Sorry if this really doesn't belong here, but we don't know where else to go.
Note, i can't contact my ISP because I don't speak there language, and I can barely talk to my landlords...we live in Korea.
link to my speed test: http://www.speedtest.net/result/412690208.png

Update:
Apon attempting to check this very post, I got a 403 forbidden (quite ironic).
I tried a new setting I was thinking of playing around with, which is to change my Airport from being a Bridge, to setting up a DHCP with my husbands computer getting his own IP... Seems to be working a little better now, but if anyone has anything to input I would be very appreciative.

Two problems, disconnecting and extremely slow internet at a certain time of the day.

My first problem started to occur since the beginning of this year, after I've upgraded from 1MB/s to 3MB/s. EVERYDAY at 2:39 PM EST or sometime around there, my internet would disconnect (most common at 2:39). It would take some 5-20 minutes to reconnect by itself. I go to 192.168.1.1 and go to broadband connection and press disconnect, then reconnect to get myself back on asap. It would take me a few tries disconnecting and connecting to get the internet back up. I probably do disconnect during other times of the day, such as night time but I don't notice it as much because I am not using the computer at the time.
My second problem is slow download speed at night. As I said, I have a 3000/667 kb/s connection. My internet connection speed is normal during the day time .. but when I ran a speed test during night time, I get around 333 kb/s download and 600 kb/s upload. So, my download speed drops significantly at night and my upload speed is normal.
I am using a D90-327W15-06 modem and I am not using a wireless connection.
Margin (dB) 14.5 11.0
Line Attenuation (dB) 40.0 23.0
Transmit Power (dBm) 18.4 11.9
Don't know if that information helps ..
P.S Sorry if this is a lot to read, I wanted it to be as much detailed as possible.

#1 Is wireless in the router enabled?
#2 If so, to question number one above: What level of wireless security is it set to ( WEP / WPA )?
#3 Did you try connecting your modem to the NID?
If not, please do that - and recheck those stats.
If you do not what a NID is, see http://www.dslreports.com/faq/1317

Very long web page load time out

Hello,
In Firefox Android when several resources in a page do not load, Firefox android shows a white page and waits for a very long time to time out those resources and display the rest of the page, while Firefox in PC quickly ignores the time outs within a page and displays the page.
How can I make the android version time out quickly and display whatever is available in a page?
Thanks

Hi FAnDwyHSHoo2K,
There actually is not a feature to do this in the ui. However you may be able to find the about:config entry that controls the timeout default time. [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_About:config_Entries]

Web pages load SLOW on IPad: how to disable DNS prefetching; other ideas?

Brand new IPad 16 GB WiFi + brand new Airport Extreme in bridge mode. Comparing IPad web page load speeds with side-by-side WinXP computer running IE8. Any web site will do: take www.apple.com if you want.
Problem: IPad web pages generally load much too slowly compared to IE8 on a computer 6 inches away on the same Airport Extreme network. Maybe twice as slow at worst, occasionally not much slower, but generally pathetic and annoying. WiFi signal strength is "excellent". Airport Extreme network is working great with all my (Windows) computers and devices except the IPad.
I already switched to OpenDNS on my Airport Extreme; didn't help noticeably. I would like to try disabling DNS prefetching in Safari, but don't know how to do it on the IPad. Question #1: How do I disable DNS prefetching? Question #2: Any other suggestions for this embarrassing (to Apple) problem?

I'm experiencing a similar problem with a new iPad 2 using iOS 4.3.3 connected to the Internet via Time Machine to a DSL line. The Speedtest X HD App shows the connection speed to be fine (about .6 Mb / s). The problem is only with accessing web pages. I frequently get a "server not responding" msg. There is no problem when I connect the device via USB to an iMac, only through wifi. The iMac itself (Intel with OSX 10.6.7) periodically experiences problems (both Firefox and Safari): I have learned to solve it by cleaning out cache and fixing disk permissions periodically. I've tried cleaning out cache on the iPad, deleting cookies and erasing web history, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. The problem reminds me of an old VNC problem: you had to allocate a large amount of cache or streaming would stall. This is also happening with the iPad 2. Maybe the problem is a DNS channel issue but my impression is that it is somehow related to a memory or cache issue with the iOS device or to Airport. I've occassionally experienced similar slow page loading problems with other Airport connected devices--it varies from device to device. It seems to be a client-side software or caching problem.

My Internet Connection is Fast, but Web Pages load slowl

I have tested my connection on several websites. I am using RoadRunner and I consistently get speeds between 3500-4500 kbps. In the past few days I have the same internet speed but all my web pages load really slow. Up until this problem I would click on a link and it would take 2-3 seconds to load the next page. Now it is more like 15-20 seconds. Once I get a page loaded if I download something from that site it is still a fast download.
Any ideas on what could have slowed loading web pages , but download speed still shows really fast?
Your help is appreciated
Cheers
mrjazz

If your download speeds are still fast, it is most likely the broswer that is slow in rendering the pages.
Are you using Safari and if so, do you leave it open all the time? Safari is notorious for hogging RAM and CPU cycles and slowing to a crawl if you do not quit and restart it.

Slow web page loads on Mac, but not for PC

I use a D-Link wireless router (DI-524) for my PowerBook G4 15" and my roommate's Dell PC. Very recently I seem to get very slow web page loads with some pages not even loading at all.
Airport is consistently connected with no drops at all and when I'm downloading something it never gets interrupted the whole way through.
My roommate's PC has no problem whatsoever and all of the web pages that he visits load instantly. It seems that my main problem is with web pages.
I've tried doing a clean install on my Powerbook, I've tried resetting the router (I've tried upgrading the firmware but the router decided it didn't want to work with the new version). And surprisingly, I get the same slow speeds when I hook up my Powerbook to my router via ethernet cable. The only time my speeds are perfectly fine is when I hook up my Powerbook directly to the wall (I dorm in a university so we have a T3 line).
Can someone please give me some advice on this very frustrating issue?

In addition to Neds suggestions, empty the Safari cache (which should be empty after a clean install).
Goto the Safari Get Info screen (in Finder or in Dock if you have Safari there), click the triangle on languages, and disable those you don't use.
My Safari response time was significantly slowed after the 10.4.5 update, and using the combo updater took care of that. The 10.4.6 combo update is located here.

Firefox has been randomly crashing for two days. I always have google and facebook running. Firefox seems to crash at random times - no specific web page loading. My Firefox is up to date.

There can be multiple reasons for crashing. Seeing this article would be helpful as it lists out the solution for this-

WRT54GS - Web page loads slow or not at all

My parents have two wireless laptops accessing their WRT54GS. Both receive excellent signal strength. Web pages load at normal speed for the first unit to access the internet on their network. However, the web pages will take forever or not load at all for the second computer, despite the fact that the signal strength to the second computer remains excellent. It does not matter which connects first and which is second; the problem still occurs.
I might mention that the computers and the router were purchased on Dec. 23, so everything should be current, with the exception of the 12/28/06 firmware release for the router.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

hi...you can try different wireless settings on the router...
channel -- 1,9 or 11
under advanced wireless settings ,
beacon interval - 75
frag threshold - 2304
RTS - 2304
if this does not make any difference then upgrading the firmware could help you....

After upgrading to 8.0 the add-on compatability tool runs and the Getting Started web page loads every time the browser starts.

After upgrading to 8.0 from 7.0.1 every time I start FF I get the add-on compatibility tool to run and the Getting Started web page loads along with my homepage in separate tabs as well. So far I have tried running the installer again, disabling all add-0ns and custom settings and restarting and turning off automatic updates. Nothing worked there. I got the same behavior each time. I don't know what else to try other than a full uninstall and reinstall. Something I'd like to avoid if it's possible because of the time involved. This is the second time I have posted regarding this issue. The first time I didn't get a response. A solution or a possible workaround would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows of any. As a staff member and a global forum moderator for an anti-virus company I understand how hectic things can be at times but some feedback, good or bad, on this issue would be very welcomed! Regards, Ritchie...

Hi michaell, thanks for the reply. I tried everything in the Preferences are not saved link you provided and nothing worked there. If creating a new profile will delete all my add-ons and custom settings I might as well just do a complete uninstall and reinstall. That actually would be easier. That article told me how to save my bookmarks though so I don't have to loose those which is nice. I don't know if this makes any difference but there is a discrepancy between the preference file in the article which is: prefs.js and what's showing on my PC which is: prefs with no .js suffix. I tried to rename the file to prefs.js and restarted. No luck there either. It just created another prefs file. I guess we've pretty much exhausted all the avenues to try! I'm just going to go ahead and do a reinstall when I get the time. Thanks so much for your help michaell. I do appreciate the effort. Regards, Ritchie...

NONE of the web pages load properly. If I hit "Ctrl + F5" it will fix THAT PAGE ONLY. I have to do this to EVERY SINGLE page I try to load. This ONLY happens with FIREFOX. Internet Explorer works fine. PLEASE HELP! Thanks.

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

Slow page loading / Time outs

I am getting very slow page loading times. This only started to happen today, before this my connection has been solid.
I have reset the router, all the other PCs in my house are having the same problem. I am not running any P2P/Downloading software.
Speedtest says I am connected at 12MBPs. It takes me a very long time to load a page and most of the time they just time out.
Router stats -
ADSL settings
VPI/VCI 0/38

WRT350n Firmware Update 1.03.7 - Web page load really slow after update

Well I updated my WRT350N with the new firmware, but now web pages load very slowly, and streaming video is even slower. Before the update it was blazing fast. I run a mixed network of wireless N and G. Both Wireless N connections connect at 200 or higher Mbps now, which is a great improvement.
Anybody got any ideas why web pages and steaming video run so slow now.
Also downloading files never goes above 30 kb/sec now.
I use comcast cable and downloads were so fast before.
Thanks in advance.

check the download speed and the streaming video when the computer is directly connected to the modem
