My client is a trader buys the best of everything. He is recently experiencing crazy slow page display for almost all websites.

When I run speed tests speakeasy.net, his speeds are reported "blazing"


Anybody got any ideas?

Internet Provider: Comcast - 22mg down, 6 mg up
Mac OS: v10.3 - no current updates
Safari Browser: v3.1.1 - No Current updates
Mac Airport: Connected using new ethernet cable
Hardware: 1 year old Mac G5 (250mg drive, 2g memory)

Mac Disk Diagnostics: Run
ONYX Disk Cleaner: Run
Reboot Airport
Reboot Cable Modem
Reboot CPU
 
Strange... can you try creating a new user, logging in under the new user, and checking the browsing speed? This will help narrow the problem down to one of two things: a user account error, or an error that isn't tied to one account.
 
I will try setting up a new account.
Also, I there is an outside chance that I setup a static dns in the router and or the network config. Comcast may have changed their dns which may be causing some resolving issues.

I will update this thread later. Thanks for the suggestion.
 
**FIXED**

Very shameful mistake on my part. I setup the computer with a static dns not realizing COMCAST changes it's DNS servers occasionally.

ElDiabloConCaca -- Thanks for your replies.
