I followed your advice on using Public DNS servers and tried several of
them. The result was that most web pages loaded but it was painfully slow.
Some still did not load at all.
Do you think it is a direct problem with my ISP's DNS server that is
obtained automatically (for your reference they are 64.59.135.133 and
64.59.135.135)? Or is it a problem with how my computer is communicating
with those particular DNS servers? FYI, when I run Network Diagnostics with
Windows XP again, this time it does NOT detect any problems with the
connection.
I will call my ISP again to see what they can do but if it's still a problem
on my end, what else can I try?
Thanks for your help.
Pick a public DNS server that's close to you. For any prospective server, do a
traceroute to that server and pick one with few hops. Your ISPs servers are
best, because well designed IPSs will have them at 0 hops. Less hops = less
latency.
