[isf-wifidog] Re: Very slow / broken HTTP?

[Joseph Luk]

Thanks for the quick replies!  Hmm... that's an interesting 
possibility.  The symptoms kind of sound like it -- HTTP connection 
startup problems, things get overloaded and everything grinds to a halt 
after a number of connection attempts, and using an HTTP proxy fixes 
the problem.

I'm using Mac OS X, but I checked to make sure there were no automatic 
proxy config settings in the system or browser. Could it be that some 
kind of odd HTTP header is being sent to the client causing it to look 
for a proxy?  Are others with Mac OS X experiencing the same problems?

Thanks very much for your help in tracking down his problem!

Cheers,
Joe
