Website slow

Postby rick » March 16, 2011, 1:12 pm

I think this is one for Lee.

I do not post much on Udonmap these days, because it is soooo slow. I use an aircard, so accessing anything is slow, but i can load pages from BBC news faster than Udonmap! This has been progressive over the last 4 months, getting slightly slower every month. Also, logging in takes me about 3 minutes, and sometimes arbitrarily logged out; if i do try to post, 50% of the time it fails (page not found or something similar). Are any others experiencing this? Can anything be done to speed things up? i have heard a couple of people say it is getting slower.

Thanks

I use many times the WIFI system of RuySuk MAnsion and I have no problems. Aircard is indeed slow.

(B)Rick, I reckon the problem is your end. Below is a quote from you on another forum.

Brick » Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:16 pm
Some of us have limited connections (either in time or speed) and i do find i have to skip threads because i do not have enough time. This is a very active forum (which is good) but i only browse for an hour or so a day and cannot read everything in that time - due to slow connection

Instead of UM changing perhaps it's you who should be changing things.

Rick try Google chrome, there are a few options to speed up page load speeds e.g. turning off images, javascript etc. The front page can be a little slow for users on slow connections because of all the graphics so you may find it easier bookmarking the forum page instead.

I'm not sure about your login issue however it sounds like it could be something to do with your connection speed. There are a few topics open already that discuss this issue. ;)

Well, thanks for all the advice. I know that my biggest problem IS my internet connection; but there is little i can do about that while in the village as i am not here all the year and a landline connection is not currently on the cards. Also most other problems are probably caused by this slow speed. I was pointing out that i thought Udonmap is a bit slow; generally Thailand based content is faster to access but i find Udonmap slower than other Thai websites - as i say BBC is sometimes faster. I have been trying the no images option in google chrome, and that works ok with BBC and hotmail, but i do find that some websites have critical items on icons which are not loaded, which can make navigation, logging in and out difficult, so i think i will have to give up on that. i just have to logon for longer and during the day when i can go outside and get a better signal.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestions.
