Wireless Internet Connection slow

[brainwave89]

I have a 6 months old iMac whose wireless connection seems to be slower than normal. It is the only computer in the house. Other than rebooting the wireless router and cable modem is there any other suggestions on what I can do so my up to date Safari browser loads pages quicker?
Thanks.

Do you have a cordless phone?

Try using OpenDNS. I use it on all my macs and I definitely notice an improvement in speed. Nothing to download, just change a few settings in System Preferences.

I don't know what version of OS X you're running so I sent that link.

snappier, you mean?

If you just feel that it's slower, you could determine your actual speed, e.g. here (http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest?flash=1), and compare that to the results you get when you hook up the computer to the router using an ethernet cable.

If you just want a fater Safari, start using Webkit's Nightly builds (http://webkit.org/).

Are you saying that rebooting the router or cable modem speeds it up?
