Re: [DW6000] Turning proxy off seems to improve many things... said by Bill00:...This works the same with "plain" IE6 without the Maxthon front end. It is also repeatable with normal variation any number of times. I don't know just how long it has been this way for me, but it has been a LONG time. Firefox has always been slower than IE on the testmynet site since I have been using it, and they had a blurb there recently that there was a problem with it. FWIW. Bill. Bill -
Does this look familiar? For me on my DW6000 Consumer setup, the IE6 TestMy.net download speeds have been slower with the Proxy OFF for quite some time. As you mentioned, Firefox is just plain slower than IE6 (Proxy ON) regardless of whether you do the test with the Firefox Proxy ON or OFF.
