Internet loading very slow

I just purchased a new Imac I am a recovering PC user anyhow the pages on Safari are quite slow to load. If I try to watch you tube the videos take a really long time to load. I am using wireless connection. The PC I have is also wireless with no problems loading. Can anyone help?

Not true at all.
I just posted a topic about this. SAME CONNECTION with A PC IS FASTER. Period.
I see this talked about all the time. Has nothing to do with ISP but everything to do with .KEXT ethernet files.
I found this after posting my issue...200 milliseconds vs 1-2 seconds on a MAC seems like DIAL UP if you are a power user and if you are paying for 1.2MB per second, it seems to be foolish as a cheap-o 384K connection (what is seems like on a mac) would be the way to go as for some reason, even my new Macbook Pro, when wired, exhibits this very same problem whereas on a cheapo PC, it is an INSTANT experience.

    My internet is very slow, it takes a long time for webpages to load and things to download. Here are my speedtest results, if its helpful. http://www.speedtest.net/result/1029395537.png

    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?

    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?

    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?

  • Please help: Course loads very slow and takes almost 100% cpu and 1.08 GB memory

    The total page number is 129. We used Captivate 5.5. We have several Webpage widgets and a few videos. I tried to take out the web widgets and the videos, however, the course still loads very slow.
    I would really appreciate if someone can give somve suggestion.
    Thank you very much.

    Captain Ibuprofen, we actually continued having the slowness problem in the past week. Then one of our developers found out the reason: as same as yours, caused by the page number widget. I wish we would have seen your response earlier. But yeah, so now we took out the page number widget and everything goes normal.
    Also thanks for the tips on using the cpInfoCurrentSlide variable when adding the slide number. Thanks Andy.

  • 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.

  • ITunes loads very slow

    With over 48000 songs, itunes loads very slow. Thinking it my be my pc I loaded it onto a new pc and get the same results. Is there anything I can do to getit to load under 5 seconds at least?

    Dear Apple,
    I need to complain about the same problem. I have 1/10th the songs in i-Tunes (~4800) and I cringe every time I want to start the program. The same delay happens anytime I load or switch a CD to import a song.
    Google can load a billion links in a blink; can't you load a millionth of this info in the same amount of time? Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
    Frustrated,
    -Mike

  • Firewall/VPN Model-SG300 Cyberguard after configuration internet working very slow....please help me...

    i have one firewall model number sg300 i configured each and everything

    please help me....
    Thanks,

    Hi 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 .

  • How can I determine if my iMac is infected with Malware.  Internet is very slow at times.

    Some time ago I opened a link in an email from a friend and later found out that his email address had been hijacked.  The site the link took me to seemed innocuous, but ever since it seems that from time to time that my internet connection is very slow, as if there is not enough band width.  Is it possible that my computer is infected with some sort of malware?  How can I determine that?  If it is infected how can the malware be removed?

    Here is the report.

    I clicked on a link in a email from a hacked email account and since then my internet connection runs very slow at times.  I am concerned that my iMac may be infected with some sort of Malware
