So here is the problem.

For the last few weeks there is a good chance every time I try to go to a webpage it wont load.  I have to hit try again four or 5 times and wait a few minutes before I can get the page to pop up.  This doesnt happen every time though.  I can surf at times 4 or 5 pages in a row and everything is fine and then the problem starts up again.  Or it starts as soon as I start surfing.  This happens day and night and regardless of how many computers I have running.

Talked to my ISP support and did some tests.  My download speed was 14.3 mbps and upload like 7 mbps and the guy said that was great (I have fiber optics). He didnt have any solution for me. The problems occur regardless of whether I am using Firefox (which I always do) or IE which I tried to see if it was the browser.  It happens to all three computers I have hooked up.

I have McAfee security and did virus scans.  I reinstalled firefox.  I cleared cookies and surfing history.  I tried not using the router (though my stock charts work fine).  I am at a loss of what it could be and while not preventing me from surfing the net, it is really fucking annoying.


Anyone have any ideas on what the problem may be and/or how to fix it?

Reset your router and try again. Seems like maybe the ARP caching is off. Or try a straight through connection to a computer w/o a router and see if that fixes the issue. If it does, then replace router or do a firmware update.

“At least once every human should have to run for his life, to teach him that milk does not come from supermarkets, that safety does not come from policemen, that “news” is not something that happens to other people.” - Robert Heinlein, The Number of the Beast.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you NOT to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fears, our presence automatically liberates others." - Nelson Mandela 1994 Inaugural Speech
