My internet connection was very slow on my mid 2011 mac mini, pages would take a long time to load, so I would close my browser, relaunch and reload a page and it would be ok for a bit, then would get very slow again. The mac mini is connected to an ethernet switch and router via cate5 ethernet cable.

I looked in network preferences, and all the buttons in the diognostics were green.

The odd thing was, was that my wifi on my laptop and tablet were faster and more reliable. Pages were loading fast and normally, while the desktop was slow.
