Hi Pal

1 Virtually instantaneous. So quick couldn't time it

2 Starhub Max Online

3 Forum speed slow as....starts off OK, then deteriorates. Especially hard accessing longer threads or going from one page to another.

4 lunarpages website pretty average, slight lag on each page selected.

So it wasn't the DNS problem.

It should be the route from my Starhub to my server. SingNet users less likely to be affected.

Will likely migrate to a local server next week.

Please keep the test coming in .... thanks!

1. Instantaneous
2. Starhub Max Online
3. Slow, slow, slow (good in spurts)
4. Quite alright, under 15 seconds.

Hope this helps...

Now, five minutes later it seems to be up to speed again. :???: (opening new pages that I've never visited before to eliminate cacheing on the router).

Just as I'm on a roll here as this forum's been dead for awhile, I find this forum to be lagging when i try to post a new topic. I tried the lunar pages and they're slooooow to load.

Where is the Guest forum? Lost in cyber-space?

Pal, I know you're working on it and I appreciate it.

I have to say that i have experienced so many problems over the last few weeks (replies getting lost & long delays) that i am slowly losing interest in the site.
