safari randomly won't load web pages

Hi, and thanks for your answer.

It doesn't seems to help: I entered google public DNS, and still got the issue.

Also, why I only got it with safari ? I should be getting it with all browsers.

Hmmm hard to tell, I was never really able to load same site at exact same moment on phone and laptop.

Why are you asking this ? What could this reveal ?

I had only evernote, lastspass and Xmarks, which I disabled.

Restarted Safari which had 5 tabs. The one with this very page got stuck and didn't load because of the problem.

Yes, I don't rule out it could be the network.

But it's not the DNS server since I got that with all kind of dns servers. What else could it be ?

Yes, random page seems stuck, and only load after extended wait.

I was not able to EXACTLY load sites at same moments on Phone and Laptop.... but from my test the sites are do not necessarily fail to load on both devices at the same time.

I've been using alternate browser since a couple of days, and I didn't had the delayed load at all, not even once.
Safari is definitely involved. It's a pity because it's performance are better on mac than the alternatives. But i'm forced to use alternative browsers until this issue is resolved.

Hi thanks, this didn't help but I tried this:

Ok, so I desactivated all these settings from BOTH my cable box and wifi router when applicable:

• Firewall
• Ipsec PassThrough(VPN)
• PPTP PassThrough(VPN)
• Port Scan
• Flood attack detection (Ip Flood)

I left "multicast" activated.

On my Mac I enabled the firewall.

This does seem to reduce the rate of pages that won't load.... Maybe safari is so fast that it sends and accept many requests which in turn was prompting the hardware firewalls to block some traffic, which would explain why it affected specifically Safari and not the other browsers. I also seem to notice that the whole web experience is faster and more responding.

But the problem is only resolved to 80%... I still experience page that won't load, and force me to reload/reclick them to have them load normally. This is strange because if my solution is a fix it should have fixed 100% of the problem. So i'm note sure :/

Anyway those who experience this try my solution and report.
