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 <http://google.com> <
http://google.com>, www.smh.com.au <http://www.smh.com.au>
< http://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
<http://1.5.0.7> < http://1.5.0.7>
browser.

Is IPv6 still a problem in FC5? Is it enabled? If it is, try
turning
it off.
how do i know if ipv6 is enabled? I will try other sugestions later and
post output
thanks
I don't use FC5 so if it is different, then someone else may correct me.
In my /etc/modules.conf on FC4 I have
alias net-pf-10 off
alias ipv6 off
which may be the same for FC5.
As I understand it, ipv6 can cause problems with DNS servers that are
not configured to work with V6.
This isn't just a Linux issue.
