Slow Loading Internet in Englewood/Bergen County

Anybody else having problems connecting to the Internet in my area? I called Verizon and they said the wiring was fine. I checked my computer and it seems to be a network problem on Verizon's side. Verizon did offer to solve all my problems if I signed up for a service plan or if I paid $80+ for a one time help session. If iy is Verizon's network I am sure paying would not have solved my problems. BTW I am using someone else's unprotected network!

Step one: Visit http://www.giganews.com/line_info.html and post up the Traceroute the page shows, if you wish. Be aware that your non-bogan public IP Address will show up. It might shown up as the final hop (bottom-most line of the trace) might contain a hop with your IP address in it. Either remove that line or show only the first two octets. What I'm looking for is a line that mentions "ERX" in it's name towards the end. If for some reason the trace does not complete (two lines full of Stars), keep the trace route intact.
For example this what I saw when I was using Verizon
news.giganews.com
    traceroute to 71.242.*.* (71.242.*.*), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
    1 gw1-g-vlan201.dca.giganews.com (216.196.98.4) 13 ms 13 ms 13 ms

    3 TenGigE0-2-0-0.GW1.IAD8.ALTER.NET (63.125.125.41) 4 ms 4 ms GigabitEthernet2-0-0.GW8.IAD8.ALTER.NET (63.65.76.189) 4 ms

    6 static-71-242-*-*.phlapa.east.verizon.net (71.242.*.*) 32 ms 32 ms 33 ms
Step two: Can you provide the Transceiver Statistics from your modem?
#3 If you don't know how to get that info:
a) What is the brand and model of your modem?
b) If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to it: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?
#4 If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to the modem, even if you know how to get the Transceiver Statistics from the modem: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?

Safari is extremely slow loading web pages, i have to latest software, no updating needed

Safari is really slow loading internet pages and uploading images. I have the latest software update. I just purchased this mac book pro within the last 3 months..just frustrating that it's already this slow so soon....Any suggestions? I called tech support and nothing they walked me through helped. He was going to reinstall everything but I wanted to wait and see if there was anything else I could possible do before considering I just got this notebook, I hate to reinstall everything. It seems like there should be a simpler solution...

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.
Launch the application(s) and test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

Firefox 23 loads slower than Internet Explorer 10

I was doing a speed test between Firefox 23 and Internet Explorer 10. If you visit http://ie.microsoft.com/testdrive/Performance/PenguinMark/ all addons are disable on Firefox 23 and still slower than internet explorer. Why is that?

I don't know how to interpret my results. I got 1 in Firefox (no snow visible) and 8370 in IE (blizzard). Maybe I'm blocking something?

Slow loading on website

I am new to Quicktime Pro, but have found it very easy to use with great quality results endoding my FC files for the web. My problem is that when a user clicks to open my video sample, the file has a very slow load time. Some specifics:
input file: 1.8 GB file exported from FCE as uncompressed 8-bit
output file: in QTPro - encoded with H.264, 15 fps, 100 key frame, 800 kbps, set for streaming (fast start), 640X480, deinterlacing checked. file size 8 MB.
As I said, the quality is great (except that the deinterlacing filter doesn't seem to do anything), but the playback outpaces the load very quickly. It takes almost 2-3 minutes for the file to be ready to start automatically. I've been told that an 800 kbps file should load in a few seconds.
Is there anything you could tell me to enhance the load time? I'm wondering if I'm missing a simple step since QT has been so easy to start to use.
Thanks so much for your help!! Jo

Nothing at all wrong with your QuickTime file but your html code at http://aftglow.com/ directly links to it rather than calling the quickTime browser plug-in.
That may be the source of your troubles. You need to use special html page code for QuickTime:

PP suddenly very slow loading files, generating peak files

Project from yesterday suddenly extremely slow loading, syncing files and generating audio peak files. Using PP 2014.2 on HP Z800. SSD system drive, internal raid and three USB 3 drives connected to USB3 pci-e card. Suspect drive could be hanging up but not sure how to test since all was fine last night. Files are HD 23.98 quicktime prores

I also notice my CC connection needed to be reset several times. The Control Panel internet settings keep switching back on LAN from Automatically detect settings to Use a proxy server. My computer is dual 5650 processors, 24 g ram, so don't see that as problem, especially since this worked yesterday.
Could really use help ASAP
Thanks

Firefox very slow loading most pages, sometimes error message :"can't find server for......." ....."

Firefox is very slow loading pages, some pages never load, sometimes error message stating "cannot connect to server" Router is not an issue I don't think as other computer connected to it has no problems. Used Malwarebytes to clean up problems, only 5 found. Internet Explorer does not have the same problems.

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

Slow wireless internet

Ok, so i recently reinstalled my Windows 7 and im having wireless problems now which is didnt have before.
I now takes along time to load pages and my downloads are extremely slow (100KBps). . Im currently sitting on 4 bars which is normal but it is really frustrating because of how slow the internet is. I use the RealTek 8185 extensible 802.11b/g wireless device.My modem is MI424WR for Verizon FiOS.
So since i reinstalled windows i need to re-download my games. Some are downloading at 100KBs when usually its 8-10MBs. This is strange because my internet connection is normal as before the install besides the speed which is wht im trying to fix. When im browsing its slow aswell..infact it sometimes reaching 5 bars which is even better then normal..I have installed most of the windows updates. (been 3 days since i reinstalled)

MrsMark, I'm sorry to say, but you are grossly misinformed as to the nature of IP addressing and NAT as used in home routers.
It really does not matter if someone gets a hold of your external IP address when all it points to is the WAN-facing side of the router. At worst, all they can do is send a denial of service attack your way, but Verizon would block that. They can't figure out who you are or where you live, because Verizon will not release that information without a subpoena (and sometimes, not even then, as illustrated by their actions when the recording industry got thousands of subpoenas trying to identify "John Does" who they had seen sharing music online.)
Knowing internal IP addresses is useless because they simply cannot be seen from outside the home network. That is what routers do; they physically separate the internal network from the external network while still allowing limited communication between them. Besides, nearly everyone has an internal network with addresses in the 192.168.1.x range; that IP address range was specifically reserved for internal networks with no direct access to the Internet. There are only 255 addresses in that range; it would take seconds to ping all of them and find which ones have computers... assuming an attacker could even get inside the network, which they can't
(unless they drive up to your house and access the network over Wi-Fi or something... but if that happens, you're already in a world of trouble.)
If you were a "black hat hacker" and you had my IP address, you still wouldn't be able to track my actions online. You'd have to find a way to infiltrate Verizon's plant and install snooping software there if you wanted to do that. Good luck getting past the multiple levels of security.
To conclude, there is nothing in either of the OPs screenshots that is sensitive in any way. His external IP address is public information. His internal IP is worthless to any attacker (and if they were in a position to need such information, they wouldn't need him to post a screenshot to get it.) His MAC address is equally worthless; we already know he has an ActionTec router, and that's all the MAC address signifies.
In short, he has nothing to worry about from posting those shots, and frankly, it's disingenuous for you to claim otherwise.

Slow Wireless Internet (BT homehub)

Hello, I have a problem with slow, wireless internet with the BT Broadband Homehub 2 (black). I am using a 1g Macbook 2 running 10.4.11.
A quick summary of my problem: Recently, there was a fault on my line that was affecting my phone and my broadband. BT quickly repaired the fault and reset the broadband as I complained about the speed. Connection monitors and speed tests all say that everything is running fine although I Firefox and Safari are loading pages extremely slowly; streaming of media is impossible and it sometimes times out before I can even send webmail. When I first got the connection it was lightning fast (so much so that friends commented on it when they came over). I have see that lots of people seem to be having this problem with Macbooks and I am 99.9% certain that the issue is a mac software/hardware issue. I have tried EVERYTHING that has been suggested in other threads
1.I have manually entered different recommended DNS figures
2. I have changed the wireless channels
3. I have manually entered the DNS figures supplied by the ISP
4. I have rebooted with default settings
Nothing seems to work. I'm a little bit out of my depth with this sort of thing but I have noticed that the IP address supplied by my router to airport settings doesn't correspond with the IP address in the
ISP info. I tried changing that but then I couldn't connect at all. Somebody must know what is going on here as I've seen this problem quoted on this and other forums. Is it a problem that apple are aware of? Somebody please help as this is very very frustrating.
Thanks everyone.

Hi Jocksil, and a warm welcome to the forums!
BDAqua, what does you psot mean?
No idea if it worked for the OP, some never return to tell us what happened.
My suggestion should speed up a lot of connections, and never hurt anything, but not sure what the mentioned problem was, but my suggestion won't likely help connecting in the first place, unless it really is connecting, not just getting anywhere once connected.
DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.254.3.183 behind the scenes.
Feel free to start a new topic to attract more helpers to your particular situation, here's a link if as is often the case, it's hard to find out where to do it...

There have been a few reports on here where Corsair RAM seems to have caused users a lot of grief with crashes.
The recommendation on here, mostly, is to only buy RAM from macsales.com or crucial.com as they guarantee their modules will work and offer a no quibble lifetime guarantee.
I'd put the original RAM back in, return the Corsair chips for a refund and re-order from one of those two companies.

Slow load times on AU sites?

is anyone still experiencing slow load times on AU sites, apparently this is resolved but I just emptied my cache and checked load times on half dozen sites. Still very slow!

I just loaded http://www.prettypollution.com.au/ and it took 17sec.
Got similar time for http://www.designexperts.com.au/ as well. So, although not very fast it's much better than what you’re seeing. Could be something in the node you’re being routed through.

Boot message: problem with hard drive detected. Slow loading of windows 7

Good Day
I am having a problem with my hard drive, everytime it boots these days it starts with a message: Warning: a problem with the hard drive has been detected, followed by an extremely slow loading of windows. then once in windows it gives me Anothet message
the messsage says hard drive failure imminent you should back up you data etc.
My specs are:
Intel core 2 duo e8400 3.0 ghz
4 gig ddr3 transcend
1 tb seagate 7200.12
giga byte nvidia 9800 gt 1 gig ddr3
Please help lots of data.

Another option:
Take your hard drive out and slave it into another KNOWN WORKING PC.
Back-up your data immediately. Slow boot usually indicates that the drive is going to die. (Check your warranty!)
Then, run "chkdsk /r" from the host PC to check the failing drive. (It is good to match OSes if you can.)

IMac - Slow load and wifi problems

I have lion installed on my macbook pro and on my iMac. My macbook pro works GREAT...no problems. My iMac - I am ready to toss out a window. Here are the problems:
INCREDIBLY slow boot up time - 5-10 minutes from off - 5-8 minutes from sleep
The hard drive is constantly working. I can have nothing open and it sounds like the hard drive is constantly spinning
Half the time my wifi hardware is not found on boot up and I have to reboot with slow load times - sometimes taking 20 minutes before I can get logged in to a 'working' computer
A lot of my programs have become slow. Safari can be slow responsive but others that are not apple that have done 'lion updates'
I have my activity monitor running and nothing seems to be hogging resources. My iMac specs are:
2.8 intel core i5
12 gb ram
2 TB hard drive with about 1tb free
I ran the lion update that came out and it did not seem to do much for me.
Anyone have a solution? Anyone tried a clean format and did this work? Lion works great on my laptop and I just need it to work on my main computer as well.
Reba

i think part of the boot up time issue is the amount of windows you happen to have open when you put it to sleep
other is lion upgrade slows it down due to this auto save function
my wifi is also spotty and acts like it can't find itself at times
and this is a brand new imac

Can connect to airport but not load internet page

I can connect my PS3 and window based laptop to my airport network, as both show successful connection, but I can not load internet page on either the PS3 or the laptop. My airport network is not protected. My airport base station is about 7 years old.

Well the symptoms now point to a number of issues that need to be eliminated and they are you need to check that you are logged onto the ISP. For always ON systems this is usually a function of the Router in which case you need to log onto the Router and check the appropriate settings for this function also release the lease on the IP address and reboot the Router. The other issue is that the Router may not have access to the ISP which may cabling problem [disconnected or accidently damaged cable] within your environment of a service problem within the ISP domain. Check with a neighbour who is subscribed to the same Exchange as you are to see if they have problems otherwise call your Service Provider they may have to perform a reset on their end of your connectivity.
