Hi Incognitii, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Are you able to access the site normally from another device entirely while on the same network?

 

Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?

    It happens on all devices, and all browsers.  Bitdefender only runs on my desktop.  This also happens on iPad and iPhone... and all browsers on desktop.  Dropbox.com has been whitelisted on Bitdefender.

      Are you able to try another network entirely to see if the speeds are affected there?
