Public bug reported: When using the Internet (particularly ssh and http) I often have connections which time out or "hang". In the case of HTTP connections, the connection seems to hang until it times out and is unable to recover. In the case of SSH, the connection hangs and will not respond of a period of multiple seconds, sometimes even a minute. When I notice a "hang" starting, I can quickly open a terminal and perform a browser and perform a common host lookup like host google.com, and still I get a hang. I then quickly open another terminal and do a ping -c 1 4.2.2.2 - the ping will almost always work. Other computers on the same network (windows based) do not exhibit symptoms while the issue is occurring on the ubuntu-based machine.
The problem does not ever occur when connected to a university wifi connection - it seems to be particular to a Verizon DSL connection. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Connection Hangs and Inability to Perform DNS Lookups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353474 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
