romeo55 Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Problem: Internet has tunnel vision. It can download at max speed but it takes a minute or longer to open up a single web page. I can play games and download large files just fine. But browsing the web with 1-5 minute intervals was just INSANE! The problem was ONLY on this computer on the network! So... I try different browsers, reformat (argh!), different switch/ports and replaced a dieing hard drive. Nothing worked. Then I look at my UPS and see that my ethernet line is run through... So I unplug the feed and plug it straight to my computer... problem solved. $&$^%#*%^#%(%(*#& APC <_< I'm astounded at this, had the thing for a long while and I didn't think there was anything to go wrong with them.

Phil Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Good to know, I also run ethernet through an APC. Good catch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
