Hi,
I have a 2014 Macbook and I've been experiencing on and off a very annoying sluggish response in loading web pages.
They take tens of seconds to load, and in most cases the browser just gives up and displays some error message like
"There is no internet connection", "The site can't be reacherd" or "is taking too much time to respond"
Some facts:
1. It happens with ALL my browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox), on ALL the networks I tried (home, work, cafes, you name it...), and
as far as I can tell on ALL webpages.
2. The problem usually lasts for a few days, then it works correctly for a while, then it stops again for a few days, and so on.
3. It's not the Wifi antenna:
A speed test with speedtest.py from the terminal gives Download 49.67 Mbit/s
Upload 5.43 Mbit/s
In fact the problem persists if I turn off WiFi and use Ethernet (I tried
it on two different LAN).
4. I have an iMac on my home network and I never experienced this problem on the iMac.
I suspect it may be a problem with DNS but I don't know what to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
