I did an upgrade in place from Feisty to Gutsy. After the upgrade browsing the Internet ha become extremely slow. I use both Firefox, and Swiftweasel browsers. I have tried a few of the suggestions from the Forums, but none have worked. I disables IPv6 in both browsers. I also disabled IPv6 in the operating system using this procedure:
1. IPv6 is supported by default in Ubuntu and can sometimes cause problems.
2. To disable it, open a Terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal) and type the command: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/aliases.
3. Find the line alias net-pf-10 ipv6 and change it to read alias net-pf-10 off.
4. Reboot Ubuntu.
I also switched from the standard Network Manager to WiCD, but that didn't help either. |
