Browsers are very slow

Can you look at the RRD graphs and see if the CPU load is high?

The CPU load is at zero.. The higest load is 30. :)
-
Are you running any packages? The squid package in certain pfSense releases was known to cause major slowdowns.
-
I dont even know what a squid package is :S
-
Squid is a caching proxy - pfSense has a GUI installable package of this software available. You can read all about it at www.squid-cache.org or in the packages forum.
When only http browsing is slow and other protocols/traffic is up to speed a proxy is likely the problem as it usually only interacts with http traffic. Seeing as you don't know what it is, I doubt this is your case.
-
yeah maybe.. i will try to read about it and see how it looks :)
-
Would you say that Squid is a good package to install?
It looks to speed up the load of sites very much ? or just the speed of all :S
-
It can (but may not) increase the speed with which commonly viewed sites load.
-
Ahh okay.. I will try to read about squid and see if it will work in my case..
Thnx

Not on pfSense itself.
