bravo 34 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Facebook is performing slower than dialup on my usually lightening quick adsl connection. Anyone else having similar issues over the last couple of days? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cale 36 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Slow for me also. And sometimes doesn't fully finish loading the page. Grrr! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 34 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Cool, glad it's not just me. Installed a new adsl modem and router yesterday, and was hoping it wasn't causing the issue. Google maps a tad slow too. Bimmersport blazing away as normal, so that's ok. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 34 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Same problem. Must be something to do with our ISP and the facebook server. (We just changed ISP's too). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sp8s 1 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Whats facebook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 34 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Which ISP are you slow people with? We've just moved to telstra clear and it seems all of the social networking sites are unuseable - bebo, myspace, facey. None of them load. It's a business connection, and I'm wondering if they are intentionally degrading the service to those sites under some agreement with management. Funny thing is trademe works fine, and if you were going to have a list of sites where service was degraded, surely trademe would be included. BTW we don't have a proxy server before anyone asks.

Wervie67 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 so the only fast sites you are getting have a server based in NZ??? (BS, TM). it will definatly be your ISP then. Complain and maybe you can get some credit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 34 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Yeah, but google.com, and other international sites (twitter, realoem, and many others) are fast. So far the issue is with: google maps facebook bebo myspace I'm going to get hold of the person who initiated the ISP change when they are back in the office later today. In a way, I'm glad google maps is on the list as we need this for work, so it'll mean something will happen to fix it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twisted 45 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 TCL customer here, and i've been experiencing this issue periodically for a couple of weeks with both Facebook and windows Live. I suspect the TCL DNS servers are at fault. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RyanG 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Fine here. Although bimmersport was pretty slow the last few days. Seems to be algood now tho. But I just setup a caching proxy server, so not sure if thats making much difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
