Re: n900 web browser is too slow
 
I found the connection can be a bit slow when I have a confirmed but weak signal or when I have loads of stuff open on the dashboard.

I just timed making a connection to WLAN at home and connecting to google news and total time was 15 secs at 2,5g

Re: n900 web browser is too slow
 
My web browser has sometimes been slow no matter what connection I use, and was wondering but just thought that's how it is sometimes and stayed content on it working after the first page loaded up. Now that I cleared my history and set up more space for the browser to use, it sped up a lot. So I guess I'll just clear history more often.
Thanks for the tip!

I would guess this is dns related. Switching to google's dns servers helped me, but then the settings don't always seem to be applied. I ended up just sticking it straight into resolv.conf.

thether it to your pc and surf on your pc and see if it's slow also. If it is then you know it's dns server or connection or both. If it's not then you know it's software related on your phone.

The other thing i noticed is that after downloading the 2g/3g status bar app and opening it and choosing 3g instead of dual or 2g I stopped seeing t-mobile automatically switch me over to 1 bar of edge making everything slow to almost not opening.

I think if you let your carrier drop you down to the slowest speed during peak hours they will do it but if you force it to stay on 3g it bypasses that.

I personally would not recommend OpenDNS, it does far too much fiddling rather than just plain DNS lookups. I have often had issues with it claiming sites are not available when in fact they are.
