[QUOTE="EvenStranger, post: 1193902, member: 181804"] One of the things I always check for slow network performance, especially on new systems, is the order of the network devices. Apple, in its infinite wisdom, lists devices alphabetically, which always puts Bluetooth at the top of the list. All network requests try to route themselves through Bluetooth first, and after a few seconds fail over to the next device, causing a "lag" to the user. In the network pane, click the gear at the bottom and select Set Service Order. Bring Ethernet to the top, then Airport, leave Bluetooth at the bottom of the list. Try opening pages again, and see if the lag you observed before has improved. [/QUOTE]
