Hi Lynne,

They would have different DNS (Domain Name Servers). So the problem
happens in all your connections involving different Internet Service
Providers?

It just struck me that it was the same problem I was having, where you
have to click repeatedly (up to seven times) for a webpage to appear,
where you connect successfully to a web page and a half hour later you
fail. You also download a page without pictures and have to click
refresh for the pictures to download.

I was suffering from all these and it was solved changing my DNS,
which was on automatic, to the numbers provided by my ISP.

Good luck
