Latent Browsing

altis · 19-09-2004, 20:57

I've noticed that if I access my i-Web control panel from my NTL 750kbps (silver service) connection it takes quite a while to draw all the little icons - a full 16 seconds when I last timed it. However, if I try using my clients 512kbps 20:1 ADSL connection (Eclipse Internet - v. nice) then it blasts along and only takes a second or so. Both PCs are virtually identical and, as far as I know, are configured similarly.

Anyone else noticed anything like this?

Anyone got any comments as to what might be causing it?

Have you tried changing proxy Altis? Most find this sorts their browsing problems. I'm guessing Eclipse are like my ISP and don't have damn proxies

Changing proxy won't affect anything, the i-web control panel is not on port 80.

Ordinary browsing appears 'clunkier' through my NTL connection too but, I guess, that is quite a subjective judgement. Downloading big files is fine - it trots along at over 80kBps. But when a web page is made of lots of elements they seem to come in one by one. By far the most obvious difference I've found so far is with the i-Web control panel.
