Hello,
Sorry for the flood of threads - I'm giving a new install a good test run here.
My broadband gives me 30 Mbit/sec download. The WiFi link is more than that at 144.
When I use wget on the Leap box to download something bit, I get the expected speeds of somewhat over 3 megabytes per second.
However, downloads in browsers (Chrome, Firefox) are noticeably slower, up to a third slower even. And speed tests in browsers give erratic download results - around 15-20 MBit/sec. (The tests work fine on WIndows and Android systems on the same network).
What could be the problem and how can I fix it, if it can be fixed at all? Thanks!
I haven't noticed this, except that browsers are huge applications (currently 3 GB Virt, 1 resident, here) and if the computer doesn't have enough resources (ram, cpu) then downloads might run slower. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
