slow Internet

lumiwa · 2006-12-12 22:28:41

Hi!

After todays update of kernel and glib Internet is much slower than before. I have disabled autoload of ipv6 in modules.conf.
I use a KDE.

Thanks...

A little more: I did check with wifes computer with Windows XP and it work normal. And slow is with Konqueror or with Firefox. I did update in themorning and in the afternoor kernel, glib2 and syslog. On Arch is too slow for work.

Do you have enabled?

It is enough that I just change off to on?
I commented yesterday this part in modprobe.conf and there were no difference.

What is unusual for me is that all the time fro testin to yesterday was very good but from yesterday disaster.

I started computer and updated rkhunter and works normal as before. Star KDE, Konqueror, archlinux.org and flickr and evertything is as before. Why? I don't know and I didn't changed anything.
I have and I had in /var/log/errors.log:
intel_rng: FWH not detected

Thanks....

Wow, someone is having the same problem as me! I didn't even connect it to using 2.6.19. This is indeed my case since I switched over to the new kernel and it seems that when using the internet, it takes a LONG time (30+ secs) to establish a connection with any webserver, but once it's connected it downloads blazingly fast.

At first I thought it was a temporary network problem, but it has annoyed me for long enough. This affects both my wireless (ipw2200) and wired (b44) ifaces. On my server connected to the same router using W2K, no speed impact -- and keep in mind this is on the university's ridiculously fast line (I download at 10 megabytes per second or something ridiculous like that).

Also, my Konqueror is also exhibiting strange speed issues, but only for file management. I click the Konqueror (web) icon and all is fine. I click on the Home button and I get launch feedback for a minute, then it disappears. Then 5-10 minutes later the Konqueror window FINALLY appears. This also came with the 2.6.19 update as well.

Any reason as to why this is happening?

I had one day (afternoon and evening problem) and the next day was everything as before: very good. And I didn't change anything.

Wow, you're lucky. Mine's been like this for a while now. Tried out with the beyond kernel and same problem... Unfortunately I removed the previous kernel so I'm building it from ABS to see if that's the problem.

did you disable IPV6? I did long time ago and it works.

lumiwa · 2006-12-15 17:51:45

I had in modprobe.conf:

alias net-pf-10 off

mrvw0169 · 2006-12-16 03:30:36

Yes, I tried that and even tried exporting KDE_NO_IPV6=TRUE and no effect... Also, it's not just Konqueror, but also KPDF that does this ridiculously long delay time... KPDF is worse because it takes 20-30 minutes to open...

What does 'ifconfig | grep -A2 lo' tell you?

mrvw0169 · 2006-12-16 08:43:40

Thanks, indeed it was the loopback interface that was misconfigured in /etc/hosts and I did figure it out (see: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=27787)...

Btw, this was the output of ifconfig|grep -a2 lo :

          Interrupt:10 Memory:e0206000-e0206fff

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
