Hi John, I was a bit suspicious of the solution because you said you had tried Firefox and it also had a problem. So it was not clear to me why two different browser would have a problem at the same time.
If it is a problem with Lion that slows down internet connections you would be the first one to find such. So I guess I have a couple of questions that may help identify the source (or not). Are, in fact, both Safari and Firefox slow on your Lion installation? Are either slow on a Snow Leopard installation if you still have one? Try connecting you MacBook Pro up to someone else's internet / router and see if the problem persists. Cheers, Carlo On 30/03/2012, at 8:05 , John Thompson wrote: > Well, that didn't work for long.
