slow internet browsing
At my home network my pc runs just nicely. But today I moved it to my friends place and for some reason all surfing is really slow, like google.com takes up to 30-40 seconds to load.
Using my laptop computer it loads in about a second on the same network.
I am on a 4mb/500kb connection and nothing else is using the network.
It doesn't matter if I use a cable to connect to the router or a wireless usb thingie.
Speedtest and download speeds are just fine, but surfing around on internet pages is very slow.
Hardware is a I7 at 3.9Ghz, 4GB ram, plenty of free diskspace.
Router is a netgear cvg824g and all settings there looks normal.
OS is windows 7 64bit all updated, all drivers updated too.
Monitoring the network I can see almost no traffic.
Under network properties I have disabled all but the TCP/IPv4 options.
Tried using TuneUp utilities to optimize network settings, didn't help.
I have tried closing all applications in the taskmanager, didn't help.
Clearing all temporary internet files, cookies, various cleanups ect, didn't help.
It's the same if I use another browser like firefox or chrome.
Any ideas what could be causing this?
