Steve - Why so slow?

[RJOL]

Steve,



Is is just me, or is the site running extremely slow for the past several days. I can only access at 28. 8 and it has become a slug fest for searching topics or new threads. There are only 22 people on the site right now, and it takes forever for a download. .

I haven't had any problems with speed on the site. You might try doing a tracert to the TDR site and see if it's stalling somewhere between you and the TDR site. If you don't know what that is or how to do it let me know and I'll walk you through it.

Rick, I've had the same problem the last few days, tracert said the bottleneck was in Atlanta.

Over the weekend the site got really slow for me too. Last night I was on and it was back to normal. This morning when I first got on it was fine, but after I had been on for about 10 minutes it got really slow again. It had been working great all the time before this weekend.

Server....

Its not the TDR server. Do a traceroute to identify the router causing it and let that facility know.

Somebody please post how to do a trace. I would live to know how to do this.

I think you must be working on a higher plane then the rest of us...



Here is a link that might be more easier to understand for those of us with lessor brains...

Here's some handy visual tools that will check the Internet circuit(s) between where you are, and where you want to go.



NeoTrace



VisualRoute



And here's a webpage where you can test the circuit between a server in Virginia, and someplace else: Dulles VisualRoute Server
