Thread: Painfully slow

TESTING . TESTING.

NUP STILL NO PROBLEMS HERE.

Sturfed if I know.

BobR - Strangely enough, according to our stats your marked all posts as 'read' and loaded the index page all within the same second and your reply also took less than a second to post.

Go figure. Was it slow loading for you or would the 1 second be about right?

Still no problems here for me, I can open a dozen tabs at once without a problem but I have problems on another board, I can't open more that 2 tabs at once there.

I reckon there is some sort of a split in the intenet somewhere.

I wonder if this has anything to do with it.

Steven and I have both tried unsucessfully to reproduce the problem with different computers, browsers and IP's.

Over the last 6 hrs I've connected and browsed this site by:

• cable - greased lightning
• ADSL - fast
• dial up - typical dial up but no time outs or other problems.

Using Firefox, IE6, IE7, Opera, Google, and Safari. Still unable to duplicate the problem. Reckon as Cliff said it's some sort of routing problem.

Could those with problems try Renovate Forum and let us know if the same problem exists over there. No use us without the problem trying it. Theoretically the problem should be the same there as both are on the same server with the same settings etc.

Cheers - Neil

G'day Neil! Yes same problem with the Renovate Forum. At first it was OK but then slowly bogged down

Neil,
I've just tried and the problem is there in both.
At first I thought it was ok but then both seem to misbehave similtaneously. so just to make it more difficult, it's intermittent.

Just received an error message "ÏE cannot present this page"when I tried to send this message. Had to type it all over again. So here goes.

On most occasions the Forum home page opens OK. Selecting New Posts can bring up the list of threads in an acceptable time frame most times, though sometimes it can take up to about 10 seconds. The problem shows itself when a thread is selected. More often than not the selected thread (in a new page) will take a good ten seconds to be displayed, or will terminate with a "IE cannot present this page"message. At times this can be rectified by shutting down the offending page and selecting the thread over again. If this does not fix the problem I shut IE down and start from square one again.

With regard to "Mark Forums Read" , I do this to prevent being presented with a list that I have previously seen - both read and not read. I only started doing this a few months back as previously there was no need to take such action. I can only guess that a change to the service occurred at this time.

Oops! No. Message reads 'Network timeout', and failed to accept this post.

Steve,
Sorry about he delay - gave up in disgust and went and mowed the yard - sent you a PM with the results you requested .
Even sending this response took 3 attempts.

Connection interrupted
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading
The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again

Seems patchy. The renovate forum was OK when I tried it a few times. Another forum is now hanging. Here was OK for a while, then slowed.
The progress bar on the address seems to move one step, then hang for ages, then load. But last time, it hug after loading 2 of 3 items, with a blank screen inside the frame.

Steven,
Ping and Tracert results sent to you by PM. As mentioned with the ping results it did report lost packet but I lost the image. to-date unable to replicate.
