Problems with loading times?

[SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS]

Is anyone having these problems, all the filters are taking forever to load, feels like im on dial-up.

Other boards im on are working fine, its been doing it for the last couple of weeks but yesterday and today have been really bad! Almost a minute and a half just to load the feedback forum.

I have tried both FF and IE, both latest versions.

[Milhouse]

yeah have been noticing longer load times when clicking back to get to the main forum page.

[AGIT8D]

Took ages to load up this thread lol.

FF appears to be waiting for bannerspace.com.au ?

[duste]

Working fine for me - iiNet.

[SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS]

Dan? FF has always showed that, i beleive its a bug with VB being a few years old now.

Duste, im with iinet too. AL was usually quite fast.

Maybe a prob with the server? Westnet issit?

[AGIT8D]

Does it always show it for so long? Maybe I only notice it now it's dragging ass. On that note it just jumped into this thread very quickly.. *shrugs*

[SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS]

Yeah it does.

You know what, same here?

??????????????

[SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS]

i just tried with heaps of tabs and my server open and its still quick.

I have no idea, maybe its this new beer?

[mc68]

not just the beer, its taking ages for me also.

Ahh could've been my scotch then.... :wave:

[Alt_F4]

Dodgy ads, happens every now and then to most boards/sites... I have no problems myself, thanks ff+adblock :D

[Brockas]

It's definitely not Westnet, or our site.

Unfortunately the boys that Yokohama and Castrol advertise with have been upgrading servers in the last few days.

Will cause occasional delays.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's working fine at the moment?

[dattoman]

FF here on iinet naked DSL
Last few weeks I've had alot of "page not loading"
Only here... no other sites

[TJ]

corbz are you in china?

Yah quick atm

[Mistikal]

Yeah was definitely the banners - had really slow loading times for me (2 mins to load anything), turned on the ad-blocker and was nice and quick again.

Looks to be fixed now thou? Ads are back on and all quick again...

[shifted]

Seems back to normal, couldn't load a thread last night for a good couple minutes. :)

[fsbk]

i thought it was just me, but i've been noticing slow loading as well. it's back to normal now, but it's has been a bit sporadic.

[XF Falcon]

Old thread, I know, but its slow as hell for me all of today.

This happening to anyone else or just me? I'm on iiNet btw

[RICEY]

Been ok for me

[Brockas]

Been lightning fast for me all day. Anyone else having problems?

[SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS]

[RICEY]

[SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS]

I Should practice less typing when tired.

[summoner]

I've had pretty bad load times as well, but currently the site seems to be flying.

[millzy_88]

Yeah mine was pretty much unuseable last week but this week its good.

[Brockas]

If you do have any troubles, post up here immediately.

The site should be lightning quick, and Westnet are always very good to deal with if there is a problem, which there usually isn't.

[Scradly]

Mines taking ages still, it just took 5 mins to load this page.
Time to upgrade Mr Brokebank. Get your kesh out.

[mys1]

Work computer doesnt like it, seems to stall on the "google adds" in the status bar, Laptop works fine though.... stupid work servers... block heaps of shit, obviously doesnt like that one link..

I suspect that might be your problem.

I've been on from 2 different internet connections, and the site is lightning fast.

Maybe your connection is taking after it's owner, hey sloth ;)

[RELEASE]

mine at home (last night) and work(yesterday and today) has been slower than normal to load antilag.

[summoner]

It has gone back to running slow for me with long load times.

[SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS]

running fine for me!

[Lmx]

fine for me, at both work and home. (home is telstra ADSL)

[Mistikal]

Working fine here, usually its the banners that slow the forums down, but I've had AL on the white-list for months, haven't had an issue for a while now.

[TJ]

fast for me on adsl2, wireless broadband, and iphone.

[RELEASE]

seems normal again for me too

[Alt_F4]

Yeah the site's gone a bit patchy for me, sometimes it's as quick as normal, but others it struggles to even load half of the page , let alone the images.

EDIT Just took over a minute to refresh after posting, ended up stopping it and forcing a refresh.
No other websites I'm on are experiencing slow down, including that bandwidth whore facebook

[summoner]

been patchy today :/

[TJ]

slower than andrzejs supra build this week

[cplagz]

If you are maxing out your bandwidth in torrents it will slow the site down.
When it runs slow - do this and post up results.

start -> run -> cmd -> OK -> tracert antilag.com

then do this

Start -> run -> ipconfig /flushdns -> OK

If it's still slow, try changing your DNS servers.
Primary - 8.8.8.8
Secondary - 8.8.8.4

If it's still slow after that .... well, we will leave it until that happens.

For those of you using Windows 7/Vista with no "RUN" option, just skip it and type directly into the bottom of the start menu.
