Re: Slow site today
Hi John
As you too seem to be having this Problem,i am wondering if it is at times possibly your Provider as at certain times when its really busy this can happen! (overload)
I would Phone your Provider and ask them to test the quality of your line!
If there is any noise or crackle on the line it will affect the download time!
I was a while back having this kind of problem and after Telstra tested and then renewed my Line all was a heck of a lot better!
Just a thought mate!
Another is your splitters (filters) I had mine changed as well,as if they are old their use does get worse!
Other than that I have no idea! ?
Cheers

Tony, or maybe B. Kong trying to jam us after gaining access to a computer and taken umbrage at some the remarks made about him by Cappy. Cheers John S

Always remember mine Marian. 8765 being of course the reverse of 5678. They made allowances for us slow learners in the old days. John S.
