Solve : Problems with Certain Websites? |
|
Answer» Well I use Firefox but i guess its pretty much the same question anyway... I have trouble connecting to certain sites, or when I do it has a lot of problems with loading pictures (sites such as myspace and facebook). I have ethernet on my MOTHERBOARD, and i KNOW its not a problem with the connection because on my other (much slower computer) it connects fine. I'm on a Linksys Router (not wireless) but that shouldnt be a problem. Any help is appreciated.Are you able to try a network card in this computer? Could be that the onboard ethernet is jiggered.it'd be possible but my pci slots are all full so it would be a hassle. if theres another solution (or something else i could try prior to doing that) i'd want to try that first Well I use Firefox but i guess its pretty much the same question anyway... I have trouble connecting to certain sites, or when I do it has a lot of problems with loading pictures (sites such as myspace and facebook).Is this a consistent pattern? Are there certain sites that absolutely will not display on this computer? If so, take a look at your hosts file. You can find it by doing a search for hosts; open it with Notepad. See whether it shows the sites you cannot access. I also had this problem, i know i say this alot but are you on AOL? If so try changing the MTU size in your router to 1400. This sorted it out for me, anyway hope this helps. Best of luck. C}{r1$nah im not on aol, but maybe i'll try that with my router anyway. its not that i can't access the websites, but on certain ones pictures wont load or it will take a very long time to navagate around it.myspace fully loads quite quickly for me & I'm on dialup, ping myspace & compare the reults.
