log on delay

[JHC]

The past couple of days it has taken forever to log onto the site I don't know the cause, my isp or the site overloading??

Your issue is happening somewhere between the your computer's keyboard and chair?

[Krummhorn]

Load averages should be just less than 3.00 ... at this moment with 74 guests and 6 members online, our load average for the last 15 minutes is 0.08 - which is quite nominal.

My response time logging in seemed normal at this moment.
Just checked my DSL connection speed (speedtest.net) @ 12 MB down and 875 KB up.

Mine has settled and now OK, it must be my ISP cause the bit between PC and chair is slightly erratic but that is normal

[Krummhorn]

. . . cause the bit between PC and chair is slightly erratic . . .

Nice to know somebody else has this same problem as I do ...

LOL @ Lars and Colin

Yeh, I live in the country side and have BB but there are too many people on it and at times it just about grinds to a halt particularly when school finishes

You just can't trust those guinea pigs in the running wheels will generate enough electricity in country N.Z., eh bro? (with thuck Niu Ziln accent)

We tend to use Hamsters over here, has anybody done a study on the relative wheel performances of the two species?

We are a bit away from the exchange and a good rate is roughly 2.75 MB. A little better at the office.

When it is busy in the evening you would sometimes think it was snail mail.

Blessed Krummhorn,

When I log out of MIMF and then log on awhile later it takes three attempts with member name and password before I can access the Forum for posting. Any ideas on how to resolve this situation?

Respectfully yours,

I use Firefox as my browser and that stores my usernames and passwords for different forums and other sites I use regularly.

Some studies show that guinea pigs can generate up to 1.75 ampere more than hamsters. But then again you have to remember about the energy loss depending on what kind of wires are being used to connect the animal to the PC.

I have had no problems whatsoever, I have wireless broadband and it takes me straight in.

Sorry folks, lucky old me.
