Title: Google search results very slow to dowload
Post by: MickW on February 24, 2013, 07:04:32 AM

hello. I have had my nexus 7 32gb 4.2.2 tablet six days now.  I do find that the web sites from a google search take ages to dowload, not like the facebook and skype pages already on my home page. Can anyone tell me what could be wrong with my settings?

I have that same issue if I use Google Now. If I search from a web browser it is much faster. Not sure how to fix it.

A reply to  my own question which might help.
Have bought a stylus and it does seem to help on those fiddly little icons and getting a web site to load. On using it for the first time today I thought well I might even get to like my nexus  :)

Google search goes through an advertisement website that slows everything down. I block ad sites, and sometimes get failure to load results.

I bought three stylus pens from ebay for under £3. They really do work as to why? I don't know. Just make the loading of web sites easier and quicker

I have pack of styli that I was given for Xmas. I am going to open them up and give them a go. I have a couple of art apps that I have been wanting to try. As far as speeding up my web browsing , I will stick to the snake oil.
