Long Delay Before Web Pages Start to Load, Then Load Suddenly Normally

I've been experiencing some problems with my internet connection here for the past couple of days.
This article from Apple support sums the problem up as far as I can tell: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106799
"This document discusses two causes of a situation in which a delay occurs before Web pages begin to load, followed suddenly by page loading at normal speed. The same delay may also be noticed for TCP/IP applications other than Web browsers."
However, their solution does not work. My DNS Servers box is empty as I have no DNS server to put in there (should I? I don't recall ever having anything there). The article is lacking in the fact that it doesn't explain what we should do if we don't have anything in that box (or we don't know what to put).
I did not change any settings before this started happening. The only thing I did was install Opera. I tried uninstalling Opera and the problem didn't go away. It happens on Opera, Firefox, and Safari. I can't for the life of me figure this out. I have even re-flashed my router firmware just to see if that was the problem, and nothing.
Any help would be nice. Thanks!

Okay, a guess...

Having recently updated Firefox, there now seems to be a long delay before many webpages load. Is there any way to easily revert to the previous arrangement, for example by removing new features that came with the upgrade that I probably don't use?

Web pages start to load but blue address bar freezes.

Web pages start to load but blue address bar freezes about a third of the way across
Sometimes the page loads sometimes I will have to refresh the page. Once refreshed the page loads very quickly.

Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
Please help with any ideas?

hello susnyk, please see [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]] &
[[Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can]]

I have been experiencing connection issues with loading web pages. It's as if the web pages do not want to load all the way and some times not at all. This has happen with all three of my computers with the same browsers.

There are times when web pages do not want to load fully and other times not at all. They just continue to open up with a blank screen. My routers light flash during this process and then they stop as if no connection is being made. I do know for sure it is not my ISP or internet explorer browser.
Thank you,
David [email protected]

I continue to have this problem and have tried all recommendations so far...I notice also when I click on a web site on the taps side of browser once it starts loading however it does not connect, web site comes up just blank while it continues to search. The same thing happens while in an email program with clicking in the email link and page pops up and continues to search for the web site. You have to reload over and over again until it finally locates it and then opens. Should I uninstall the Firefox browser and install again.....?

Bootup: long delay before sysinit.target.

My system seems to have a strange delay during boot that I don't know how to account for. In the SVG plot, there is a long delay before `sysinit.target` comes on, but it doesn't seem that anything is blocking it.
Also, systemd-blame shows everything starting prety quickly.

Are you sure that you are opening the Bookmarks sidebar and aren't using the Bookmarks Menu button that show the bookmarks in a drop-down list?
Firefox has two bookmark buttons with a star in the Customize window.<br />
One star button has a drop-marker that open the Bookmark menu and may appear on the Navigation Toolbar or on the Bookmarks Toolbar if the menu bar is hidden.<br />
The other star button without the drop-marker opens the bookmarks in the sidebar (View > Sidebar > Bookmarks).
You can drag the Bookmarks menu button with the drop-marker in the Customize window from the toolbar palette on a toolbar (e.g. Navigation Toolbar or Tab Bar or to the left side of the Bookmarks Menu Items).<br />
If you do not see the drop-marker then try them both to see which works.

Some web pages start to load then just "blank out"

When I go to some of the www.foxnews.com articles/web pages, the pages starts to load, then blinks, and starts to load again then goes blank. I went to the Actions window on the top most menu bar and saw that this is the last thing loaded. So I am guessing that the last thing shown as being loaded is causing the page to go blank. Any ideas as to why this is happening? I have updated both flash and shockwave players to the newest version. All Apple software is up to date.

PS: here is an example of what is loaded when the page goes blank.

Web pages and/or images not loading

This problem started a few weeks ago once every few days or so, then got more and ore frequent where now it is happening multiple times each day.
I am using Safari 6.1 on an iMac running OS 10.7.5
Random web pages (some way more than others) will not load when I go to them. Sometimes, the text of the pages will load, but no images. Sometimes the URL progress bar will go across about an inch and the screen will go to blank white (this is most often) and it will just sit there. If I leave it alone, usually the web page will finally load about 4-10 minutes later on its own.
I have talked with my ISP and we have tried the following fixes, with no positive results:
When the problem happens, I try pinging the website {using Network utilities) and it always pings just fine.
When the problem happens, I run Traceroute (using Network utilities) and email him a screen shot of the results.
I have changed my DNS numbers to OpenDNS, per his comments.
I have removed the router and plugged in direct.
I have replaced all my Cat5 cables with new Cat6 cables.
While the problem is happening, he can ping me just fine from his end.
When the problem happens, I open Firefox and go to the same site, and have the same blank results in Firefox.
When the problem happens, I can open a new Safari window and go to other sites just fine.
This morning, I had the same issues, so I left it to clear on its own. I then went to Outlook to check my email and I had two emails where the images would not load at all, just like the web pages. So I left it alone for over 20 minutes and still no loading. Then I quit Outlook, re-opened it and the images came in just fine. During that 20 minutes, the web pages loaded in Safari in the background.
I found and read a discussion about this issue ( https://discussions.apple.com/message/22125235#22125235 ) and per that conversation, I created a GUEST user account, closed out of my account and logged in as a GUEST. I then used Safari to browse the web ans while it was faster, eventually after about 30 minutes, I found a page that would not load (one of my usual suspect pages). I then sat back and let it go and after 5 minutes, the page loaded just fine.
HELP!!!!!

Interesting side note . . .
After writing this (above), I clicked on the SUBMIT button at the bottom of the page and the screen went blank white and it sat there for more than five minutes, when it finally went through. SO, i had my problem occur while submitting my question about the problem!
Awesome!

Intermittent very long delay before login available

Windows 7 64 - SP1 fully updated.
I have a few remaining Windows 7 desktops in my Domain. Ocassionally (have not found a pattern) the user will boot up the computer or come back from lunch and try to unlock their computer. The computer will go to a blank blue screen but no username
or password field will display. The mouse is responsive. After a very long delay the credential fields will display and the user can log in. This delay can be 20 mins or more. This seems to happen to the same computers but
only occasionally. Sometimes a forced reboot is required. After reboot the system usually works as expected.
When searching for this issue and resolutions to it, I don't seem to find this exact issue - or I am not wording it correctly in a search.
If this happened consistently, I would probably repair, or wipe and restore the system. I am not seeing anything in the event log that would be related.
I look forward to your advice.
Fred Zilz

Hi Fred,
Since the delay occurred before your input the credential. It's not related with domain.
Let's aim at the Windows 7 computer itself. Generally, it should be the winlogon process cannot load successfully.
Did you use Aero theme?
If yes, try disabling the Aero theme and use the Windows 7 Basic layout.
Meanwhile, logon with the local administrator and perform a clean boot to see if there is some other service conflict:
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
Also disconnect all network and all external hardware to check if it occurs again.

Since upgrading to FF6 and now through FF7 web pages need repeated refreshing to load this does not happen with other browsers. I have tried many solutions. None have worked. Any ideas?

Problem began after a Firefox 6 update (i do not remember which one) and has continued through current use of Firefox 7.0.1. Almost all '''web pages load only through repeated refreshing'''. If I do not refresh the web page it will just continue to try to load (as seen by the green rotating ring continually revolving) in a new window with a new tab (as I have set it to do). Nothing stops, nothing crashes. Once the web page completes and opens (after the refreshings) I can close the window click on the bookmark icon or originating link and the web page will load and open quickly (as it should). I have searched for solutions on the Mozilla site and have done many of the possible solutions (deleting history and caches, etc.) Problem seems to be communication in origin (my FF browser talking to web page server). I do not use a proxy. My set up to the internet is: laptop thru Verizon USB modem to internet. Operates as a wireless dial-up with speeds averaging 55 kbs (fast enough for me). I have used this set up for years with no previous trouble. Anyone have similar trouble, ideas or solutions?

Thanks for your reply cor-el. I had never heard of nor seen the pref network.http.max-connections until I read about it in some of the replies in this support forum. People were saying 256 was the old setting and a new setting of 48 would correct my problem. When I followed the instructions to get to - see - and change the setting I discovered that my network.http.max-connections was already set to 48. I never did this. The only way I can think of that this setting was changed is that it happened by an automatic update to my Firefox browser. So, the problem I have was probably happening while this setting was at 48 all along. It is still set at 48 and I am still having the same problem. I will try as you suggest and set it to 30 and see what happens. I'll let you know the results. That's again for your response.
