Computer question

[jean2579]

My laptop has become very slow to load sites.

Is there any way that I can speed it up? This has only happened recently.

I have a current AVG Security to stop bugs, so am not sure what is wrong.

What browser are you using ?
Have you cleared your cache ?

Is your internet limited after a certain amount if you go over that limit, the ISP slows down your internet.

Just some thoughts to ponder.

It could be a number of reasons Jean including the ones Vic mentioned.

It might even be your phone line.  I had terrible problems with internet being very unstable and slow and it turned out to be the line.  It took weeks but eventually Telstra fixed the line problem once I couldnt even use the phone anymore.

If you're with Optus it could a network issue which is expected to be fixed within a week.

What type of broadband connection do you use?

This involves turning the puta off and on again each time.

If you have a modem, router, turn it off and wait a few minutes and then turn it on again.

I wont hijack Jean's thread. My son says mines just too old, that's why its slowing down. They're made to do that.

Ten*tiny*toes, please comment, I always enjoy your posts.
I am using Explorer and we are on the NBN and use a Telstra T Hub system which could perhaps be the problem as they told me yesterday that our T Hub which is version 1 is not NBN compatible and they are sending out a replacement later version.
I am not sure how to clear cookies.
