Just recently I've noticed a tremendous slow down in my normal work flow between two local hosts on my home wireless network. I use a Terminix app on an iPad to ssh into my laptop running Debian 10 Buster.
With Terminix I get to an external server running Debian 9 quickly, but access to the internal laptop is sloooow! I have been using the same /etc/hosts file for years to define the IP of local servers, and each server has its IP defined via its interface files. I just noticed in my laptops /etc/resolv.conf file the following entries: # Generated by NetworkManager nameserver 68.105.28.11 nameserver 68.105.29.11 nameserver 68.105.28.12 # NOTE: the libc resolver may not support more than 3 nameservers. # The nameservers listed below may not be recognized. nameserver 2001:578:3f::30 nameserver 2001:578:3f:1::30 Could that be part of the problem? I've never touched that file, nor have I touched it with the previous laptop it replaced. A previous query to this list when I first noticed a slight slowdown some months ago elicited comments about rebooting the network modem but that doesn't seem to help. Suggestions welcome! Thanks. -Tom
