[QUOTE="glanglemutton, post: 1174174, member: 188805"] Hi, here's the specs: Power G5 dual 1.8, cable internet @ 20Mbps, D-Link wired router, Firefox 3.6.13. My problem is strange. When I first get on the internet, regardless of time of day or which sites I visit, everything's fine. Connection is super fast. But then, always around the third or fourth link I click or webpage I visit, everything stops. Can't load anything, or it's so slow that it might as well be dead. This problem generally lasts for no more than 5-10 minutes. I deal with it by walking away and doing something else for a few minutes, then I come back and try again, and bam--everything's back to normal. As I said, totally unrelated to time of day or selection of websites. Rebooting modem and/or router may or may not have an effect on the issue, it's hard to tell since it never lasts long. What the heck is going on? [/QUOTE]
