IE Browser problem

by Jim
(East Bethel, MN, USA)

When browsing websites in IE ver. 7 whenever I click on a link the window will open, but it takes 15-30 seconds(sometimeslonger)for the window to display the full page.
I'm using an HP 523n and just maxxed out the RAM @ 2G today thinking that might resolve the issue.It didn't.
Is this a browser issue, an ISP issue, or hardare issue internal to my system?

IE 7 Browser slow
by: Support

Your browser depends on your computer's speed, amount of ram, connection speed to your ISP, and how many hops to the server that hosts the web site you are viewing.

So lets take this in steps -

Hardware, you have a fairly fast machine and lots of ram so we can say that part is good.

Browser - If you go to Tools/Internet Options and clear your cache this will help some what. Another option is to set the Browsing History, I normally set mine to 'Check for newer versions of stored pages' on 'Everytime I visit the webpage'

Your network card in your computer - This one is important: Your connect speed should be 100 or 1000 MPS and the duplex should be full. Anything less will cause the network card to drop and reconnect repeadly. You will have to have Administrative rights to set the properties on the network card.

You have no control over your ISP connect speed but you can have the ISP check the network between them and your cable/dsl router.

Hops to the web site, this is how many times the signal from your comptuer to the web site changes from one device to another, you do not have any control over this either.

From your discription of the problem I would say it was the Network Interface Card (NIC) speed and duplex settings.
