We get a lot of connection timeouts when accessing the Internet or it just takes longer than it should to access a site. On the timeouts usually if you hit refresh it will go to the site. ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas W Shinder To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2006 1:45 PM Subject: [isalist] Re: ISA Server 2004 comparison to SonicWall How is "slowness" being defined?

The Sonicwall will inherit the same problems that were fasley attributed to the ISA Firewall. The vendor should explain how the Sonicwall will solve this performance problem (which he won't be able to).
