Why internet in LEOPARD is so slow?

[mifka]

Pages are opening very difficult. For example macrumors.com is opening in 3-4 seconds in WINDOWS XP via PARALLELS and in LEOPARD 10.5.5 in more than 30 seconds(FIREFOX,SAFARI,OPERA). I'm using ADSL internet. This trouble appeared 3 months ago. Untill then everything was allright with internet in LEOPARD.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

Did you try to reset Safari?

Try using the opendns service. It helped in many similar cases.

opendns doesn't work

Does that mean using opendns didn't resolve the issue? Or you were not able to use opendns at all?

Did you set opendns on the router or directly on the mac?

PS.: no need to create another identical thread about the issue.

I set opendns on mac because I didn't find on the site how to set up my model of router(EDIMAX) and didn't find how to set dns on router(I mean I wrote 192.168.2.1 in browser and there I wasn't able to write dns numbers)

This is what you should do:

1. Download OnyX (a free maintenance utility).

2. Open OnyX and Click Cancel on these two Alert Panels:
-Cancel the S.M.A.R.T. Box
-Cancel the Startup Volume Box

3. Enter your Password

4. Click on the Cleaning Tab

5. In each tab, execute the command. Check all the boxes in each tab. When its finished in that tab, it will ask you to reboot. Say NO. Go on to the next tab and repeat until all tabs are done. THEN REBOOT.
