Macbook internet speed?

Question

I got a Macbook pro about three months ago. Its a 10.5.4, and the internet is running really slow, like 8 - 10 seconds to load a page. It used to be really fast. I don't download movies or music from the internet, and the only things that take up space on my hard drive are my music, 11bg, and photos, 5gb. How can I make the internet run faster.

Also, is there a way to see the exact numbers of what is taking up space on my hard drive. I have used 30gb, but that leaves about 15gb unaccounted for. What is takking up that 15gb?

Answer 1

maybe you need to get a new router for your internet so that you can be wireless. maybe yours is bad, and that makes it slow. hope i helped :)

Answer 2

It could be your ISP, modem or router that is causing the slowness.

GrandPerspective and OmniDiskSweeper are pretty good at finding what is using up disk space.
