slow to internet response

[david]

hi all
having a problem with the response time in core2
this machine is dual boot and the response time is not the same in the
other os, therefore it must be in the se side of the linux as it wasnt
there before i installed core2
i did a fresh install
what happens is that there is at least a five to ten second gap between
the actual response on the router when any html site is selected
once it has found that site, ie web mail it changes the pages to the
respective request at normal speed changes
but that lag is on all new page requests and other core1, windows
machines on the same network dont have it
i am the only one so far to be using core2
please if you reply you will have to be very informative as to where to
find the things that you ask me to forward to you as i am very new to
linux, but happily learning everyday
thanks
david
