i noticed that doing my ip address
71.71.xx.xx takes forever to load, but if i stay in my network, my
192.xx.xx.xx address, it loads instantly. when my dad trys to load the
website, he has a delay of about 3 or 4 seconds to load one of the images.
so, my thought to that is that it is getting confused trying to go out of
my
house and come back in?
other than this, i have no real idea as to what is up with this.
Perhaps, what kind of firewall/router are you using? If it's on your
Linux box what's the configuration.
i have a firewall on my windows box, and i think one on my linux box, if its
turned on, its all at default settings. the router im useing is an older
netgear one, was bought about 2 or 3 years ago at a cost of 30 bucks to give
you guys an idea
Some appliance routers have problems with looping back the address of
their external wan interface when it comes from the lan side. Some
just can't do it at all, I suppose others might do it but with
performance problems.
Since your dad is seeing performance problems, and I assume that he's
outside your lan, I suspect that you've got a general throughput
problem on the router.
my dad isnt really haveing the problem, its only my computers inside the
network,
is there any way to fix this other than buying a new router, or manually
typeing my ip address?
