Hello,
For the past week or two I've been having really slow internet browsing. It stays loading forever, and there's only a handful of sites that actually work without any problems. (Including this one, sometimes ;)) and I have no idea what's causing it.
I've had various tech support staff tell me there's something wrong with the area yet nothing is posted on the Service Status, and my neighbour accross the street isn't experiencing any problems even though being connected to the same UBR.
wget of http://www.ebuyer.com ->
--20:39:58-- http://www.ebuyer.com:80/
(try:20) => `index.html.3'
Connecting to www.ebuyer.com:80... connected!
HTTP request sent, awaiting response...
End of file while parsing headers.
Giving up.
Any idea what the bolded text means/could be caused by?
ping to ebuyer.com ->

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 73ms, Maximum = 90ms, Average = 78ms
Traceroute is normal too.
The strange thing is that I can download from a number of sources and can get full 20mbit downloads. I can also play games such as TF2 and UT2K4 without much trouble. All in all I'm sick of the crappy techies that haven't got a clue - and the thought of explaining the stuff about missing headers to them turns my stomach. I've tried everything that could have been causing it from my end - routers, firewalls etc. I even tried loading up a page on a freshly installed XP without any luck.
Anyone here that can shed some light?
