[QUOTE="Head_Unit, post: 992082, member: 135495"] iMac PPC G5 1.8GHz, 2GB RAM, OS 10.5.8 I'd posted another thread saying the connection was dropping, but it appears not true. I noticed today that a) Transmission was showing continous upload b) Browser response was not dead-just veeeeeeery slooooooow. Like 3 minutes to load the default Wikipedia page in the latest Safari (4.0.3 for this PPC). And the same under Firefox 3.5.7. The only thing that "fixes" this for a while is reboot of the machine. No apparent pattern as to how long the machine has been awake or asleep. Rebooting the modem (even disconnecting the cable &/or removing the Ethernet from the iMac) does nothing if the iMac is awake. Network Diagnostics never helps. Tonight actually it showed "fine" when the left buttons showed ISP, Internet, and Server all red...maybe because the connection was too slow to respond? Should I delete all my connection settings and start fresh (if so how)? Paint a pentagram on the back of the iMac with Steve Jobs' blood? Or with Steve Ballmer's? Aaaaargghh, please help! And thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
