I have a G4 iBook (issued to me by the school system I work for), and everything seems to run smoothly at school. However, at home, while connected to my home wireless network, applications (Firefox, Word, whatever) take forever to launch (literally 5 minutes or more). If I shut off the airport, they launch immediately. I'm assuming that the system is searching for some resource on the school's network, and waiting for a timeout, but thats just a shot in the dark. What might this be, and how might I turn it off when at home? Could there be another cause of this behavior?
Thanks,
