This forum is OK, I've had problems with slowness on others though.

Yup! Same as AlexS , as a matter of fact it appears to be this site only, and I'm logging out for the day!

As a matter of interest, which URL is giving you problems.
I'm logged in to www.woodworkforums.com and it is performing OK.
Edit:
Just tried
https://www.woodworkforums.com.au
and it is working OK too
will try the ubeaut URL
http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com.au/
that is working OK too, maybe isolated to a particular ISP????

I've noticed this with quite a few sites lately. And paying attention to the times these slowdowns happen, they don't always match the forums maintenance periods (as I know them) or brekky of those across the big pond or...
I believe that at least a portion of it's due to Minister Conroy.

I've noticed that several sites I regularly access are either extremely slow or unavailable if I go through my usual ISP.
Yet tunneling through to those same sites via an overseas proxy - which was previously typically slower - gives me no problems whatsoever. The only practical difference I can see is that currently my local ISP goes through these mandatory government filters.
I'm really beginning to despise politicians.(Well, more than before... in the past I might've pretended ignorance if they were bleeding to death in the gutter out front. Now I'd hire a street-sweeper.

I see all 3 of you are using bigppond, may be a problem there. If you're using explorer try downloading and using Firefox.
I've had no problem either at the factory on slowish adsl, at home on cable, or on the mobile.

Interesting post. I use bigpond and have noticed some slowness, its across all sites not just this one. Its also been very minor, no errors or long wait times.
A few people who have complained also use bigpond in different states, I wonder if they're testing different filter software in different areas?
Do you know how you can test if your going through a filter?
regardsSteve

Glad its not only me
I am using our own server but using Windows internet explorer.
Had a winge to neil yesterday and it could be caused by the windows updates not beign compatable with the forum server.
We have had a few updates lately they come in overnight and I go to start up in the morning and get the message that your computor has been updated and restarted.
His suggestion was to change to firefox but as yet have not done that and in saying this it is running ok this morning on windows.
So whats the answer, I DONT KNOW.
2nt try well bugger me I open my mouth and now it does not want to play, may have to get the firefox going
3rd try I have learnt to copy and paste so I do not have to re write my repliesJim Carroll

I reckon it is some sort of routing thing, I'm on Westnet & I have no problem at all with WWF, however, for another forum that Alex & I are both members of, it is the other way around, he has no problems there but it is painfully slow for me.
