http://forums.opensuse.org – Currently on an Acer Aspire 5532, and using mozilla and google chrome. Webpages take about 10-12 seconds to load using the ethernet, wifi its about 2-3 seconds. Using eth0 loading YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. in chrome, will sit at "resolving host" for about 10 seconds before bringing up the page. You would think eth0 is faster than wlan0, but for browsing the web its slower. I tested the speeds at Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test and both wlan0 and eth0 get the max speed my internet provides. I never downloaded drivers for the ethernet card or wifi, they worked so I didn't try to mess with them. But perhaps that is my problem? What do you guys think.
