    Hi Frank, I'm having difficulty to reach Garden Stew. If I am lucky it takes me about 3~5 minutes to get here. Sometimes it just show a blank page.

    When I reach the homepage, anywhere I go to will also take a long time and it will show a blank page first, the content will be loaded after a long while.

    I am using Edge and also Chrome which is the same result.

    Anyone else having this problem?

    Track the multiple links used to send packets. I use charter cable at work and we usually have 26 or so pathways for any given request linking to a server located elsewhere in the country. I have seen as few as 12 working when the web is acting clunky. If it acts like data flow is reduced, like file sizes of pics and so forth have become very large or like your equipment has decided to act like its 20 years old, it is very possibly these separate and multiple pathways acting up and that is an isp issue as it relates to the isps that have to talk to each other to send requests for page data across the larger geographical distances between users and servers. I know for example that were I to request a server to show a site to me here in Alabama but said site was maybe in California, I am very likely to have sent that request through Charter, to the Trunk, then to the isp handling the server. The three background services would be akin to using 3 airlines to make a trip and come back, any of which could have a data flow issue.

    This morning had the same issue and it takes about 8 minutes to get in. This is also what I see while waiting and after refreshing.

    I only had the problem with Garden Stew while the rest of the sites are as normal. Now Garden Stew is also back to normal :)

    Dirtmechanic I am sorry it is a blur to me but I am sure it is something along the line.

    Thank you all :)

    I commonly have to wait on GStew. Usually it starts to load, drags for some seconds, and then loads quickly. I think its file sizes being sent. Like it sent the frames but the filler is big and takes a bit.
