[QUOTE="Reactionz, post: 1305823, member: 217187"] Hello everyone I am having a major problem with my iMac. The wifi is extremely slow on it, it's connected just fine with no problems but it's slow. What I noticed is that when I first connect it's perfectly fine loading sites for the first couple seconds. Same thing when I restart the router. The wifi is perfectly fine on all my other computers/ idevices including my iPad (which I am using to type this) so it's not a router problem. I'm guessing it's connectivity problems.. I hope that my airport is not broken on my iMac... It was working fine for a couple months... Anyways, here are the options I have tried : - Setting dns to an open dns - manually entering dhcp and stuff - resetting the pram - restarting the router/ reseting it - changing wifi channels and names AND passwords - deleting the preferences file in system config I am going insane trying to fix this, apple support is asking 50$ for help so thats not an option. My only guesses are that the router config is the problem or something with my wifi settings Please help, thank you. - Reactions [/QUOTE]
