Be patient. It will be faster later. Also, there's a thread below about that. Read other threads in forums before posting. Particularly in Feedback. Things get reported pretty quickly around here.

Maybe its your connection - I'm sure satellite must take ages to reach us from the Death Star. The pings for gaming must be horrendus.

Do a tracert to www.boards.ie and post back your results - give us something to go on rather than your ravings.
