FWS speed

[NC_TOM]

Is it just me, or is FWS loading slow today?

 

[Robert]

It's me also. I'm running cable (2mbps down) and it's slow loading. Takes a few seconds to load sometimes.. and doesnt even load others. I keep thinking it's my cable but all the other sites work fine.

 

[MN-Carl]

Fast for me

 

[Cyber]

going slow at some points, fast @ others. im on cable!

 

[cheatpark]

Seems normal to me. I use ADSL.

 

[is0lized]

cable also, lots of people on so slow bandwidth

 

[foo2thabar]

Seems faster than normal to me....

[add]
And I'm on dial-up

The past few weeks the speed has been all over the place.

At one point it could be blazing fast while the next minute everything could come to a crawl... like now.

 

[Todd]

I noticed before that the load was running high at times but I just checked and it's not at even 50% CPU usage and it has memory to spare so it's not the system. I checked for network issues and found none so my advice is to do the normal traceroute and look for problems along the way. I don't believe it's the FWS server because of the light load plus myself and apparently others haven't been having problems but I would be interested in hearing if others are having problems as well.

[Edit] One more thing, when you do post your results please continue to say what type of connection you use. [/Edit]

 

[ducktape]

kinda slow on cable

 

[Bruce]

I'm using ADSL.

The slow-down for me is always right when it hits Dialtone.

It seems to come and go as far as speed for me.

[Toefur]

It's slow for me... oh wait... Everything is always slow 'cuz I'm on dialup... :biggrin2:

Same speed as usual for me.

 

[trenzterra]

Sometimes its very slow, sometimes its slow, sometimes its average but probably never fast...

Now its average speed.

 

[foo2thabar]

Here's what I get......by the way, the server FWS is on is in central Florida [just in case that matters] [I used VisualRoute]

Then thats not your traceroute. That's just a traceroute from another server to FWS.

 

[Peo]

visualroute is a program you can run from your own computer and it does trace from your location.

 

[Bruce]

Ahh... so it is. All I noticed was their online demo.

 

[cheatpark]

I have noticed that these forums are slower today.

 

[foo2thabar]

I used the MS-DOS tracert command.....I just remember from a while ago I was bored so I checked where FWS's actual server was located with VisualRoute....
