That sort of delay is usually DNS related
- may be the satellite link doesn't have a direct connection to the DNS server look ups, and is spending the time searching for the
DNS for it
If I try to Ping that site at
http://www.rotary7080.guelph.on.ca/ I get a Can not find Host
If you know the numeric IP address try opening the site w/ that in FP

| Kathleen (&Stefan),
| The delay (about 8 mins)occurs between clicking on the URL and the
| appearance of the password prompt dialog box
| Once the userid and pw are entered, access is immediate.
| I had also done the things Stefan suggests. A reminder is that this delay
| happens only with the one web (URL given previously) and only with the
| satellite broadband connection.
| I appreciate the interest.
