Issue: EXTREME slowness on PC!!!

My connection is slow only on here from time to time, but I can still connect to the forums. It just takes a load of time for posts to be posted or to just view a thread.

EDIT: Okay, the forums are rarely even loading now for me.

I notice much of the same in lengthy load times here when viewing threads/blogs/profiles. And I'm behind a connection that usually varies from 512kbps to 2mbps. So I can usually tell when my connection is slow because there's a ton of folks online on campus and when it's the site.
 
I cannot even access PC from my IP, I have to use my proxy to get to it. I've tried different browsers... Firefox 7, Opera 11.52, latest Iron... different OSes... Linux, Windows XP, Windows 7... it just won't load on my IP! It sucks =(

I might be having a similar problem with my ISP modem reading the forum's IP address. I just has a test done with the modem and it's not the problem. It's something to do with the community forums' IP address.

That is what my modem is tell me. The same request time-out or connection failed, but what even stranger is how I'm still able to connect to the forums but it's getting a "request time-out or connection failed" from the modem's trace(s).

Pc runs slow from time to time when there are a lot of members online at once and it puts stress on the server. There is noting that can really be done about it unless Pc gets enough donations to upgrade its host. Unless you feel like donating some money and making that happen don't really complain about it.
 
I don't know how to trace on my Linux distribution, looking into it now.
