Slow page loading times

It's the server end that needs to accept ICMP packets for path MTU discovery, not the client end.

Perhaps. However with the pingable off my websurfing suffers massively with that on its is fine. The op should try it and report back !

I must admit, as aweful as Skoogle Mail is, I have noticed a significant increase in my download speeds over the past week or so, since Sky off-loaded the email from its servers. I was getting 2-2.5mb/s but this has shot up to nearly 4.5mb/s now. For all I know, this may well be totally unrelated

The page loading time, mind you, is still dreadful. This becomes almost unusable if I have uTorrent dribbling data in & out at the same time (and I mean 'dribbling' - currently d/l at around 20KB/s due to limited seeds).

i havent read the whole 16 pages of this thread but im wondering if anyone has tried setting their computers dns servers to NON-sky ones (opendns for example) ive just tried it and it does seem to speed up the laod times

I too have wondered if Sky's servers and DNS resolution are up to the job. They appear to have had massive uptake of their BB service and probably haven't got the necessary infrastructure -- yet. Lets hope things pick up soon...

I am noticing slow web page loading, if I multiple download using Flashget I get full speed.

Open DNS sounds like it is worth a try, I searched an old thread and they said to change the setting in the PC as the router is locked, as I just found out. Anyone know where the setting for this is, I just had a quick look and there are a hell of a lot of menus.
