Well that didn't attractt much attention. I have now read the section on Internet problems and will shortly post some output from my system. I will hope that this may elicit a response to my problem.

After having upgraded from 10.10 to 11.10 via 11.04 my wifi response times have changed from very fast to "dial up" slowness.

Two days ago I opened a thread which no one answered, perhaps because...

Can I assume that the fact I have had no replies means one of the following?

Thanks to everyone who contributed to solving my problem. I have learnt a lot.

The solution indicated by Morbius1 has solved my problem. I have some post solution feedback questions

1. Can we assume from the need to create an explicit location for Data1 & Data2 in the media...
