So, I'm thinking now that the problem was Verizon related because before I made any changes, the problem got better. But just for kicks, I tried this solution, which seemed to have no effect on the speed. I'm assuming that this FAQ is relevant to Mozilla 5.0 even tho it doesn't state the version because I don't know how to tell that the version of firefox I'm using uses ipv6 v. ipv4. So, I'm happy that my connection is fine, but not so happy that I don't know why it was bad to start with... Thanks for pointing me to the FAQ tho. Hoping it will come in handy for some other issues before I go posting to this list again without reading the FAQ. --- Alexander Dalloz <ad+lists@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > http://www.fedorafaq.org/fc2/#mozillaipv6 > > Does that help? > > Alexander __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
