Vista's firewall
i've noticed that when i enable Vista's firewall, my cable internet
connection slows quite noticeably. It's really like a serious and continual hiccup becomes a part of my browsing experience. Disable the firewall and everything returns to normal. Is this common?

Vista's firewall
Hi
Nope, the firewall should not slow down the connection. Check carefully all the settings. Try to uncheck the IPv6 in the TCP/IP's properties, http://www.ezlan.net/vista/TCPproperties.jpg Jack (MVP-Networking).

Vista's firewall
Thanks Jack,
I've made the IPv6 changes and we'll see how it goes. So far I think I am noticing an improvement in speed. "Jack (MVP-Networking)." wrote: Hi Nope, the firewall should not slow down the connection.
