Hi,

This is mostly off topic given this is a Linux List.

I have two separate work areas in my house. I have my home office which
is doing well. I am using my Linux Ubuntu desktop to send this email.
My Linux machine is hardwired. This is my main box. I also have a Win
10 Pro laptop that I use to make and edit YouTube videos. My editing
software only works on Win and MAC. This laptop is connected via WIFI.
No Problems. The O/S loads reasonably fast. My video editing software
loads reasonably fast and the rendering process takes a bit but not too
bad. This is a 6 year old HP - nothing fancy and it works.

My wife's office in another spare bedroom and she has a Dell mini-tower
Win 10 ... I want to say pro as well.

Here is where I need help. My wife's dell is very slow and has trouble
with loading Firefox and it takes a while to load YouTube videos. Even
windows takes a while to load which make me think it is a local problem
(the Dell box).

I am reaching out because I do not know how to troubleshoot this issue.

Any help much appreciated.

Keith
