Hello Hodsock, thank you for your suggestion. MTU solved my problem.
Based on what I read, different hardware use different MTU and Vista could not properly set settings...
Problem solved. Now surfing fast.
thanks fpr posting back the solution!
I should have thought of this as well but I use a tool called tcp optimizer which corrects the mtu automatically. so that was never in my mind....
Hello Mscrx,
thank you for your contribution as well, I learned many things with you while you walked me through troubleshooting steps for the problem I had. I never had an idea about those procedures.
Thanks again, this is wonderful forum.
