My desktop pc is fine but last few days my laptop is taking ages to load web pages, the tabs just say "connecting" in fact even when page does show fully the tab is showing green loading circle.Problem is on all browsers.It is so bad i restart sessions - but same.Even whilst i am typing this tab is connecting.
Laptop is working fine other than online prob -there are no load issues for non interenet
I have done disk clean up and ran security scans but prob still there.I assume it is not ISP prob as my pc is fine?

Your modem could be on the way out. I had a similar problem fifteen months ago and tried another used one with similar results. Then I reluctantly (I always thought they were very reliable) bought a new modem, and have not had a problem since. .
