Re: [PLUG] KDE apps make slow internet connections [solved]


I solved this by adding the two DNS servers that the router uses to the list 
of servers to use, the router being the first, and the others following in 
order.

I actually got competent help on this from Verizon tech support.  (Always a 
crap shot, but sometimes with winning results.)

Problem solved.
