Hi,

I am a new user to LEAF, however I was using the original LRP a serveral years 
ago (Thanks Dave!!).

Anyway I have set up a Bering (latest version) router (laptop 233Mhz & 128Mb 
RAM), which works just fine. I have it set up so I can share a ADSL link to 
the internet. Anyway I decided to install a proxy server and found the 
tinyproxy lrp on Jacques Nilo's site. I installed, configured at got it 
working... 

The only problem with the proxy is that it is VERY SLOW at serving up pages. 
Eg. I downloaded one website with a couple of pictures on it which took about 
1 minute to download, however when I disable the proxy and just use the router 
direct it takes < 5 secs... And Yes I did empty the browsers cache...

This sort of timing is consistent across many different pages I have tried, 
and I even did a packet trace one time to find that the initial TCP connection 
happened < 0.1 sec, and yet the initial reply from the proxy once the http 
request was forwarded took 10secs to come back...

My questions after all this are: 

Does the proxy normally take this long? (I suspect not).

I believe there must be a configuration issue between the proxy & firewall or 
even DNS... Any hints? 

Is there a different/better proxy to use?
Thanks,

Brett
