[Bug 155393] [NEW] Internet extremely slow in Gutsy/Intrepid after upgrade

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I did an upgrade in place from Feisty to Gutsy.  After the upgrade
browsing the Internet ha become extremely slow.  I use both Firefox, and
Swiftweasel browsers.  I have tried a few of the suggestions from the
Forums, but none have worked.  I disabled IPv6 in both browsers.  I also
disabled IPv6 in the operating system using this procedure:

1. IPv6 is supported by default in Ubuntu and can sometimes cause problems.
2. To disable it, open a Terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal) and type the command: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/aliases.
3. Find the line alias net-pf-10 ipv6 and change it to read alias net-pf-10 off.
4. Reboot Ubuntu.

I also switched from the standard Network Manager to WiCD, but that
didn't help either.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Low
         Status: Incomplete
