Hope someone can help.
I have 512k ADSL broadband and connected to the internet via a D-Link
modem/touter. A laptop with XP and everything is fine on that.
<http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/#>Another laptop with a dual boot
system. I have Win XP (and again everything
is fine) and FC5.
The problem is when I am surfing the internet under FC5 Linux. Certain
sites
are fine, but some (google.com, www.smh.com.au, etc, to name a few) just
don't load, sometime, it keeps "looking up ... ' or 'connecting to ...'.
sometime, it stoped with ' loading problem ...', most of the time it just
stops after loading the banners.
the ethenet connection obtains auto dynemic ip address.
Any thoughts anyone? I am using the Firefox 1.5.0.7 browser.

As root, execute this command:
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0
Then retry your stalled connections.
