I have asp.net site on iis 5.0 that is loads acceptably fast when
accessed from an internal LAN URL behind the firewall even over a 56k
remote connection, but the same pages load a lot slower or hang
altogether on the external URL we gave it for accessing from outside
the firewall. Any suggestions/ideas on how I can improve the load
speed from the external URL link?
Many Thanks!
Sounds to me like you should troubleshoot your firewall.
I don't think that this is related to IIS. It is more likely a network
problem, or firewall problem. Try the networking newsgroup, they might have
some ideas for you:
microsoft.public.windows.server.networking
You can also use a utility such as WFetch (IIS 6.0 Resource Kit) to get the
page that way, so you can rule out that Internet Explorer is the problem.
If you have recently changed the DNS info in the DNS server, try to flush
the DNS on the local machine (ipconfig /flushdns). Also make sure that your
changed has done it around on the Internet, it could be a problem that it
cannot find the website (unless you of course get something to load).
Also make sure that you have no limitations on the HTTP protocol in the
firewall.
