App store loading VERY slow or not at all

Hello.. I hope someone here can help me. Since i upgraded to ios 4 i have been having problems with the app store. It either takes 5 to 15 mins to load then another 5 to 15 mins to update or download an app or it doesn't load at all and kicks me back out to the main screen. seems to be only happening with app store. I have updated to the newest ios, done the soft reset, restored it in iTunes, changed my dns server and just about everything else i can think of as well as everything i have found on the internet. Any1 else having this problem or heard of it ? Or any1 know how i can fix it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

same problem here, on iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.3.3. AppStore takes AGES to load. i have quite a few apps, but shouldn't it be able to cope w that?

I have this issue as well. it's particularly acute in the updates tab which, quite often, just stays on the gray background.

Exact same symptoms here. Everything was perfect on my IPAD until the IOS5 update now the app store refuses to load. Also random web pages in Safari won't load either, though many do.

Same problem here, even a 1mb app can take forever to download. This happened on my iphone, ipad and even itunes for app updates. When are they going to fix this?

Same problem.... download apps through iTune is definitely much much much slower than in the past.😠

I'm having the same problem too. This is bad, even with a direct connection from my computer with a 15mbps line, it states 6 hours to download an 18 mb app. Is this a Singapore problem?

It's Singnet's Problem. A lot of users from Singtel/Singnet experiencing issues on this topic

Coincidentally, I'm on Singnet. Is anyone here having the same issue but NOT on Singnet? Just to verify this claim...
