networking reinstall?
I have two laptops. One connects very quickly to the internet but the other can take a very very long time to connect. To be clear the download speeds are the same via netspeed.com. However one machine often cycles and cycles to establish a connection, as if the DNS lookup were very slow. Sometimes the browser never does return. The problems seems to happen in all 3 browsers, chrome, firefox, and safari on the slow machine. It started when I was trying to do some fancy configurations of my airport express.
It probably isn't be the wireless because the other laptop is speedy. I've done all the simple tests. Restart the machine. Restart the router.
Is there a way I can reset the networking state to a fresh install? Any way I can get error messages to see where the failure is happening? The problem is intermittent making it every more frustrating to diagnose.
