Post by hunkerdunker »

The past week, my computer internet has been very slow for all browsers.

Other programs (office, VirtualBox) fine.

I rebooted, same thing.

I'm not sure what you mean about "other programs". Are you saying that the internet works as expected in a VirtualBox VM?
Could you please post the results of inxi -SNxxx?

Your graphic driver is wrong or Cinnamon is too demanding for your hardware.

That helped. I recently got a new network adapter, forgot to disconnect the other one.
That fixed it.

Thanks for your help. :o
