I got a new airport extreme and sometimes the internet will take 40 seconds to load or not work at all. normally theres about 7 seconds before it loads. My old router does not do this. During these slow times i try my old router and it works perfectly and instantly. Any idea what is causing this? I read it could be software or is my router broken? It hangs or doesnt work on both mac, pc, and my xbox and ps3. Whats really weird is I think it even hangs through ethernet because my xbox taks a lot longer to load basic images?
Thoughts, suggestions?
Thanks
