finewoodworking dot com slowness

[Matteo Lorenzo]

Anyone else out there have a tough time surfing around at fww?

I'd say at least 50% of the time I cannot load a video or access a pdf. I'm a paying subscriber, if it means anything. And there's nothing on my end that would cause this issue. Of course, there's always the possibility it is, in fact me...

so I thought i'd ask.

whats the consensus? fww . com running well out there?

It always seems to run aa little slow for me Matteo.

Could be regional/provider issues. Just to test I logged in and clicked on the "Limbert Inspired Coffee Table" video. The page changed immediately and the video was playing in about 4 seconds. I am pretty critical about the garbage that passes for internet content these days but, even for me this seems very acceptable. Now if FWW would just fix some of their terrible navigation flaws :rolleyes:.

Always runs slow for me, too.
Sometimes I have to load a video 2 or 3 times.
