> Since we are troubleshooting, can you just manually configure your > browser to use the proxy, instead of doing transparent interception? lol i did what you asked about - and eureka :D - when i use my squid proxy by entering its address in browser and i ofcourse disable "REDIRECT" from iptables, all webpages are working fine !!! - there is no lag in that case ! - hmmmm so ? whats next ? why REDIRECT in iptables is making such slow connections ? > I would also suggest increasing the FD to a more higher value, like 65536 (what we use). I did this few hours ago, it didnt helped sky-link squid # cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max 405415 > Turn of "disk caching" in Squid and see if that makes anything better? i suppose i dont need to do this since we know that using "disc casching" cant be bad if i done have lag when i enter proxy ip and port in my firefox :) So, what now, ?? this is my redirection rule: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -s 192.168.0.2 ! -d 192.168.0.0/24 --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8123
