I moved into a new apartment complex a month ago and it comes with free wireless internet. And they are using Wireless B. I have a Linksys USB wireless G adapter with speedbooster. I am running WinXP.

first question is, whenever I try to load websites, it doesnt matter which ones. Sometimes they don't load and I have to refresh a few times to get them to load. And if that doesnt work, I have to go to another site, then back to the first for it to load. I know I have a fast connections, cause I will sometimes download at almost 1 MB/s but the pages take forever to load. Is there a setting I can change to help improve the web page load time.

My next question is, whenever I try to load Azureus to download torrents it says it is DHT firewalled. So I call up Airimba wireless (the internet provider) and ask them to open some ports and they tell me that all ports are open. Also while azureus tries to download a torrent my internet connection goes down and I can't open up any websites.

ive tried to research the problem online but no luck, So i turned here. any help is appreciated.
