    I have a fairly old Toshiba laptop,which i just use for emails/internet which does the job except for Donedeal for some reason, when i click on a add and then click to see photos of the add,they maybe 5/6 photos when i click to see next photo i have to wait for it to load for a long time most of the time i give up, Adverts ok ,Utube videos ok, its just Donedeal, annoying, any settings i can adjust?

    What browser are you using? Have you tried clearing the browsing history?

    Try a different browser or try in incognito mode or its equivalent in Firefox.

    Is it the same on other devices like phones etc? Or to see if it is your broadband you could turn on the hotspot on your phone and connect the laptop to it. If it improves then it was the internet provider or connection.

    It seems to work fine in incognito mode as you suggested, why would this be?
