OT Slow Internet Connection to Wind Baffle

[tbird]

Does anyone else have to wait like 10-20 seconds before the Wind Baffle sites starts to load? http://www.windbaffle.com/ or is it just my internet connection?

Just tried it and it loaded in 4 - 5 seconds, must be your connection.

Yup, it's your connection there are three pictures on the home page and they take a long time to load with a 56K modem connection. Try broadband.

I have broadband. I was refering to the time it takes to even find the site. I click the link it, doesn't even start to load for 15+ seconds.

Just tried it again, it took a little less then 4 seconds

Just tried it myself. Loaded and showing pictures in less than 2 seconds. Also on broadband through Roadrunner.

From time to time, even with broadband providers, their domain name servers go wonky and it takes much longer than usual to resolve URLs to the correct IP address.

When this happens, let the tech support folks know at your ISP.

I don't use the cable company's DNS, I specify my own DNS servers manually in my network 4.2.2.1 4.2.2.2
