** Description changed: Using multiple machines that have both Windows and Ubuntu installed, whenever I am working in Ubuntu, webpages take much longer to load. On average it takes about 7-10 seconds just to load google (when cache is cleared), some pages simply time out. This is the case with all of my Ubuntu installs, and when I boot them into Windows the connection is perfectly fast. I've tried setting the ethernet cards to half/full duplex and changing the router configuration, but to no avail; I have also tried various browsers. This problem seemed to occur starting in Dapper and is now also an issue in Edgy. My connection is 9Mb/s down, so I highly doubt it's the connection (especially since it works fine in Windows). Typically, I will enter a URL and the page will attempt to load for about 10 seconds, then most of the page will appear, with some - content (pictures, etc) continuing to load. + content (pictures, etc) continuing to load. This slow connection speed + is also preventing me from installing Ubuntu on client machines for + obvious reasons.
