I took a look at my router's config and saw that its DNS setting was set to "dynamic". I assume that means uPnP or DHCP but I don't know where it was pointing at. I changed it to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and rebooted the new kernel. It seems to have improved but I'll keep an eye on it. I don't see how a change of kernel could have affected this, unless there's some subtlety in uPnP (or DHCP), but we'll see. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
