Hi Barbara I am not technical but your problem is familiar some days are sludge days. I finally lost my connection entirely, and the Router had had it. However if you have a helpful ISp they can run tests on your line and maybe give you feedback. I often wonder how one can check when the Computer is working flat out, do you know what I mean? Would that be possible to check? Would it be the available Ram, or the Cpu? I am sure some on the list will know you need to know if you are working your computer flat out as you could tell with a car.

My Internet is very slow and pages take a long time to load no matter the time of day. When I type in an address and press Enter, I hear JAWS reading out the percentage loaded and it climbs up very slowly. Many times it just freezes or I close it down as it's taking too long. Sometimes if I use the JAWS cursor it will read "Opening page" And then the address. And others it says "Page found, waiting for reply". Does it sound like I have a setting not set correctly? When I restart the computer the Internet works very quickly for about 20 minutes and then back to slow again until I restart the computer. This is extremely time consuming and not a realistic way to work.
