I have a Macbook 2GHz intel, 1Gb Ram. I connect via Airport to a Netgear DG834G wireless modem router then to an 8meg line. My ISP is Bulldog.
The problems I am having is when I open a page in safari it will start to load and the blue bar will go as far as http//: then stop.It will hang for anything up to 10 to 15 seconds before loading and a couple of times safari has just quit dumping all open pages.
So a couple of questions, has anyone else had a similar problem? Do you know of any issues with airport and Netgear modems? Could this be software or a hardware problem ?
I have a Dell intel dualcore notebook which I run on the same router with no problems.
I have tried loading the same page on both notebooks at the same time and the Dell hammers the macbook everytime.
I have tried changing the channels on the router in case it was clashing with my wireless system for my Sky+ but it made no difference. The router firmware is up to date. The Macbook firmware and sofware are all up to date.
I live in a new(ish) 1 bed flat with only stud walls and am never more than 16 feet from my router,
Any help would be good as I am getting very frustrated...............
