Slow................Browsing

[Kliro]

Hey, my browsing in both firefox and IE is deathly slow, reaaly annoying me.

I know its not the actual connection as I can download files at full speed, its just when browsing.

Doesnt seem to make a difference whether I specify a proxy or not.

Any ideas?

Yes. I sometimes have problems where it takes ages for a page to display, then whoosh - displays quickly. The lovely Iggy tells me that it's my upstream and it's caused by RF interference by some chav with dodgy equipment. May be the same problem in your case.

I'm getting the same - Bittorrent seem fine and gaming is too, just the web is affected.
