Hello,
I have a Powerbook that runs quickly on wireless. A (gasp!) PC that runs quickly via ethernet connection. And an older G4 that runs like a 1 legged dog via ethernet connection.
On the slow G4- I have run Techtools 4, which doesn't find anything wrong. I have run Norton Anti-Virus (version 10), which doesn't find anything wrong.
The slow G4 runs 10.3.9, the Powerbook runs 10.4. I am using Firefox 2 on both.
Can somebody help me figure out what is slowing this G4 down? To type even in a field such as this, the letters lag behind my typing. To load a typical web site takes 3-4 times as long as on either of the other connections. The ethernet connections are not daisy-chained. Both ethernet connections come out of a cable modem to a wireless router. I've tried switching the order on them, which didn't make a difference. Also, the G4 is usually the only cpu runnning. It's very rare for all 3 to be used at once.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
