anybody having problems with internet?
 
started today, seems like pages arn't loading properly, i had a few coworkers say that they are having same problems at home also. (but they arn't computer literate, so cant take thr word)
need to refresh page a few times to load.

havn't tried Firefox, just IE?

somebody mentioned it could be a worm blocking ports.

i dont know why, but my firefox seems acting up.. it seems slower loading RS as well

i usualy have no problem loading youtube or porn online.. but it takes quite somtimes recently

im using shaw and done a speed test with it. speed isnt a problem ..Full virus scan and it seems fine as well

I've noticed within the last few days that websites like craigslist have been loading alot slower

moky 07-06-2010 01:48 PM

yeah i noticed it on mine too and i use a mac. i sometimes have to close safari or firefox and restart it, or disconnect then reconnect to the wifi at home. some websites are acting up like fido.ca for online billing

you guys need to download more RAM and gigahertz for optimal speed

I have a problem with the internet too. It's full of pointless threads and stupid people.

Firefox has been on and off this past week for me. Sometimes it's slow and sometimes it's fine.

Today, my internet has been d/c-ing around evening time for some odd reason. Seems like things are fine for now.

invader 07-07-2010 09:16 PM

Try pressing the any key

its been happening to me alot to lately. I have a splitter before the cable connects to the modem and usually that messes up the signal. If you got a splitter as well just call shaw and tell them you want to change it.

ShadowBun 07-07-2010 10:13 PM

my firefox been acting up

youtube has also been super slow..

MG1 07-07-2010 10:18 PM

I'm having issues with my Internet connection, too. It's hella faster these days. For close to a year, it's been slow, but for the last three to four days, it's been really good. My wireless connection is faster than being plugged in (ethernet). Weird, weird, weird. Doesn't make any sense. Unless, Shaw upgraded something in the neighbourhood.

orange7 07-07-2010 10:54 PM

internet has been the same. I live at the Renfrew area.
