Guest Youngster Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Hi folks, I'm using Earthlink DSL. I'm dual booting WindowsXP and Mandriva 10.1 When I boot into Windows all web page lookups are really fast. When I boot into Linux the exact same web pages have more than a 20 second delay. What could cause this? Firewall too tight? DNS lookup problem? Moved from Installing Mandriva by theYinYeti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniewicz Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 When you configured DHCP, did you specify the DHCP host name using the IP address or the IP name? You should be using the numerical IP address. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyspongebob Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I wonder if earthlink does not support linux. Is your computer behind a router or hooked up directly to the modem? J.T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
