Is your internet connection really slow?
And this is not just for DU - it is for all internet websites.

1. Slow for me only on DU.

And some images, avatars, etc. don't show up for me.

On edit: One site I visit a lot is just fine. Right now I am trying to bring up the CHICAGO CUBS website and that doesn't work.

5. Yeah
I am at Kinkos and am using DSL, but the individual next to me was using a sattilite connection that too was slow.

4. Last coupla days...

... my Internet connection has seemed much slower. But then I've been using it more, too. (ReplayTV show transfers, constant Air America streaming)

Hmmm... Is all the Air America Radio streaming bringing the 'Net to its knees...? Or is the NSA targeting our connections?

p.s. ISP = Comcast cable broadband, Chicago
