All webpages are loading hell slow! I looked at NetLimiter and it said it was loadin at 1KB :shock: And it isn't limited :?

Any ideas what could cause this?
Using XP Home, thanks :)

Are you uploading anything or downloading anything? Also one thing to consider is your unlimited bandwidth is dependent on how busy the ISP is correct?

It's gone up to 4kb/s and they are loading faster now. The pictures take about 2 seconds which isn't bad but I thought with Cable I should expect 10 or 20kb for a page? :?

Thanks for the tip Boozy, when I reboot I'll let ya know :wink:

a good way to test you speed it goto http://www.download.com and DL a game demo or somet from them and it gives you a accurate reading of speed

Try dumping your internet cache and temp files as well.

It's only these forums, all other sites are fine :?
I'll delete my cache, if that don't fix it I'll speed test a game :wink:
