Chili Flu

I too am experiencing these same things...just assumed it was me or my phone but doesnt sound like it.

Re: Iow slow?
 

Having same problem in Burnside,Ky.

Yes, have been since the time change, website is still on fast time, or something like that

Re: Iow slow?
 

I've noticed Charles hasnt been posting as much. Maybe its slowed way down over in his neck of the woods,that all of his posts are still loading??? :D:D:D

Re: Iow slow?
 

Quiet. Im Hibernating.

Re: Iow slow?
 

I have been seeing it too. Just on IOW, not other sites. I checked my down load speed on OOKLA speed test and my modem is down loading at 125 Mbps.

Yes, mine as well, only on IOW, but my crappy wifi provider is max at 25mbps,Frontier if you're interested!

Re: Iow slow?
 

Yup. Slow down here in Texas, too.

Re: Iow slow?
 

Yeah slow here in Phoenix too.

Or in my case, sometimes not at all, really slow, been that for way too long

Happy New Year!

As some of you may know, I work for an electric utility and we’ve been pretty busy the last few days. I apologize that I’m just now seeing this thread. I’ve submitted a ticket to see if we can’t get the issue resolved.

So sorry for any inconvenience caused!

Thank you very much, I'm 86 and don't know how much longer I can wait

The pop up adds is what’s slowing everything down….. unreal!

Re: Iow slow?
 

It is certainly slower
Not having any issues with other sites

Re: Iow slow?
 

Yes. In central Ill.

Probably jammed up with winged sprint car posts.

It appears to be working much better and faster today on my end. Whoever did whatever, thank you very much for your time and help.

Re: Iow slow?
 

Fixed, thanks Mrs. G.

Re: Iow slow?
 

I was just getting online to confirm, and it looks like response times are much better. I appreciate the patience and understanding of those that allowed me an opportunity to get the issue resolved!

Again, my apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused!

Re: Iow slow?
 

Thanks for handling this issue Mrs. G. Much respect! :9:

Re: Iow slow?
 

Ta da!

Re: Iow slow?
 

I think IOW members should buy BoBo a free beer if you see him at a race this year for bringing this problem up and getting it fixed. :32: Of course as a friend I get the first sip :3:

Mine is better but not fixed, I use my phone mostly, but here lately I have to tap the Fwd button to get it to load, once its loaded its much better?

Re: Iow slow?
 

It’s happening again. Anyone else?

Yes, thought it was just me, started yesterday, slower than pond water again, but I also have a very crappy provider!

Re: Iow slow?
 

I'm at Lake Lure, NC now and everything is slow down here. Wish a slow IOW was my biggest problem.

Re: Iow slow?
 

Slow as a car 3 laps down to the leader................

Re: Iow slow?
 

Definitely slower than usual, a pretty good pause before a page loads up

Re: Iow slow?
 

Also slow here in Philadelphia, PA area, but I don't have my school van runs back until Tuesday so I have time to wait. So far no issue with Flo and there are a few races I plan to watch tonight and tomorrow so again all is acceptable.

Re: Iow slow?
 

Think traffic on I465 is faster right now.

Re: Iow slow?
 

Yes, I would have to agree, I just assumed it was my provider, but maybe I assumed wrong, and I've only been wrong once in my life, and I was right that time, only thought I was wrong!

Re: Iow slow?
 

I'm a little slow too, at times, so I'm not going to point any fingers.:3:

Jerry

Slow and full of ads

Re: Iow slow?
 

Flat out wont load on my phone

PC in the office it only takes about 45 seconds!

I wonder if the amount of popup ads are having an affect. Seems to be quite a bit more.

Re: Iow slow?
 

This problem is getting really annoying! I have a high speed connection and this site takes forever to load and navigate!! I have no problem with any other sites, just IOW!
Throughout the day as I read books online, check various news sites and social media, I skip going to IOW, which used to be my go to site when surfing, because of this frustrating lack of performance.
Sadly, I believe Bill Gardner must be turning in his grave if he can see how horrible the performance of his site has become!

Re: Iow slow?
 

Yes, right now it is slower than my crappy provider, and it is in the lower 05's in MBPS, not GBPS!

Maybe we should be Thankful that Mrs G.has kept this website up a operating? Just a thought.
