Hi,
My wife's Macbook Air (Sierra, all software updated) recently (within the last two days) developed a problem where Safari takes a very long time to load a new page. This is not specific to a particular website...any site takes very long to load, but it will finally load after maybe 30 seconds.
I've searched online and tried different things to fix the problem as suggested by people with similar problems: rebooting the Air, rebooting the router, turning wifi off/on, clearing Safari cache, deleting Safari prefs, changing IPV6 (in the Network Pref Pane) to "link-local," etc., but nothing has fixed the issue.
Chrome works just fine, so she's switched to using that for the time being, but I'd like to figure out what's going on with Safari and fix it.
My iMac (Sierra, all software updated), running on the same wireless network doesn't have this issue.
I've avoided changing the DNS (as suggested via my searches) b/c my iMac doesn't have the issue.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks.
