There's some great advice flying on this thread, I'm sure a solution is coming with a few more iterations :-) The IPv6 thing that I have seen is that DNS lookups can favour IPv6 even when there is no ability to route IPv6 "out the door". You can kill IPv6 (which is completely useless assuming you do not use it on your intranet and cannot send it out on the Internet), by adding install ipv6 /bin/true to /etc/modprobe.conf. These kind of problems, and another stupid problem I once had of setting my private DNS cache IP in /etc/resolv.conf and then taking the machine back to my friend to use on the Internet, show up really clearly if you shine tcpdump on the traffic :-) I think trying to discover exactly where the slowness starts to come from will be a good clue. What I understand so far is that ICMP traffic is fine (ping/traceroute) but www.google.it (tcp) comes up slowly. You might find it easier to use for example wget -O- www.google.it since this will not try to bring in the graphic. Why not try that with tcpdump in another window and paste the result. - -Andy - -- Automatic actions for USB cameras, cardreaders, memory sticks, MP3 players http://warmcat.com/usbautocam -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA3CnxjKeDCxMJCTIRAlUSAJ0cnZFZiAvvRTtpXeifquM6EIhPUACdFp/b Nzjj2eqHYK3Ye4EDPU3Xyhw= =RFxs -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
