Title:
  Internet extremely slow in Gutsy/Intrepid after upgrade

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  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.
