[QUOTE="chscag, post: 716268, member: 46727"] I just verified getting into the CHAT areas and the actual CHAT rooms which are available. I also don't believe it's a JAVA issue otherwise it would show up when trying to access other sites. The only other thing I can think of since we're both using Verizon FIOS is how they're resolving DNS addresses in your locale. I had a lot of difficulty with DNS addresses here in my area which only seemed to effect my Mac. Both of my Win PCs were OK. Verizon tech support was absolutely no help when it came to the Mac. (Not surprising.) After a week or so of slow browsing and not being able to access some sites at all, I did some net research and came up with a solution. I switched away from using Verizon's DNS addressing and instead use OpenDNS. Now everything works fine. When Verizon first brought FIOS on line here in my area everything worked well, but as they began to expand and add service areas is when things began to slow down. Why the DNS addressing they use only impacts on my Mac and not my PCs is still a mystery to me. Regards. [/QUOTE]
