I've been having the same issue with Internet access (via dialup), but the experience is across most of the entire [Net] for me. It's been maybe a week or so that it has been very notable. It's been so bad a few times that I've dipped into my reservoir of not so pretty words a couple times along the way........... Ditto what Felix said about running both until you see if you like the newest edition. I'm actually about to deliberately debootstrap Stretch soon again just for practice. It will be my backup since I moved to Buster during the newest release. I consciously keep both because I always have it in mind that maybe someone will have a problem with the previous release and maybe, just maybe I'll be able to duplicate their issue to try to help out. I actually was able to do that a couple months back where no one else could duplicate a user's error, and my setup actually did throw the user's same issue. *yay* :) Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with duct tape *
