Hey everyone,
About a week ago I noticed a serious slowdown in my internet browsing, whether it was loading pages or streaming video on a website, and it's really beginning to irritate me. The weird thing is that when I download torrents through uTorrent, they're as fast as they've ever been, as is any direct download. (Before you tell me to close filesharing programs and shut off filesharing in System Preferences, I already have done both of those.) I have a MacBook Air (1.8GHz processor, 2GB DDR2 SDRAM) and OS 10.5.8, fully up-to-date. I tested my connection on one of those speed test websites and got ~3.7mbps down but only 0.65mbps up.
Any help is MUCH appreciated. Thanks!
