Title: Tradgang real slow on my PC
Post by: Car54 on March 14, 2011, 09:39:00 AM
Tradgang.com the last several days has become slow when down loading pages.  Is their something I can do about it?  All my other web sites load fine except Trandgang.
Help is appreciated.

on the other hand, trad gang runs super fast for me.

once you have really good, state-of-the-art fast server hardware and software - which trad gang has - the rest of the "speed equation" is in other things, like the network and your box.  typically, it's a network issue, as the path from the server to you travels a mighty twisted relay road that's only as good as all the links in its chain.

Its just strange that all other web sites I'm on work at my normal speed, but when I go to Trad gang everything slows down a bunch,  like I'm on dialup connection. Guess I need to have a computer guy come check it out.
Thanks for your info... Take care.

have you tried another computer?  borrow a decent laptop, or have someone bring theirs over, and use that for access from your location - if works fine, you'll know it's your box.

You sure you're not downloading updates in the background and are you using one of the latest browsers? I use firefox and the board is smokin fast for me.

Try it with a couple of different web browsers, internet explorer and firefox and holler back  :)
