Why is mandriva surfing websites slow with cable moden
Hi,
Surfing websites on my PC is good. However surfing websites on my linux mandriva machine is slow. Also google.com forwards all my search engine request( PC and linux ) to www.google.co.uk which is strange becuase I live in the US.
My cable company just installed a Motorola SBV4200 cable modem.

Are you running Tor on your Mandriva machine? If you are using Tor, and the machine on which your HTTP requests exit is in a another country, google will respond with an internationalized version of its page.
