Default Excel Files Open Slowly

:


I work in an office that has 2 subnets. 192.168.112.x and
192.168.113.x. I can open Excel files on a remote server very
quickly when i am doing it from a 112 computer. Excel files open
very slowly when i am doing it from a 113 computer. When i put a
113 computer on the 112 network, Excel files open very quickly. I
verified IP, gateway, and DNS info is correct. I tried using
private and public DNS servers in my IP configuration. All
computers on the 112 and 113 network are plugged into the same
switch. Can you give me a list of things to check so i can
troubleshoot this issue?


All computers on the 112 and 113 network are plugged into the same
switch.

If all computers are plugged into the same "switch", then they are on
the same physical subnet. Change your Subnet Mask from 255.255.255.0
to 255.255.254.0 on all machines.

HTH,
John
