FC6 has gotten me frustrated

[Aaron Konstam <akonstam sbcglobal net>]

After fighting with For 9 months I am exhausted. I had to get the sound
card to be recognized, to get the machine to shutoff when I shut it
down, etc it has finally almost defeated me. It has worked for 6 months
or more but suddenly during a yum update last week the network slowed
down to a crawl. I did not update anything for awhile but now to use the
web browser to load the web page of the local lan's router takes maybe 5
minutes if it loads at all.

I can ping the router with out problem but yum actions just slow to a
halt, going to an external web page is impossible.

The resolv.conf has not changed, neither has the hosts file. Right now I
am stumped any other suggestions out there.

Since I am  heavy into F7 I am the point of thinking of giving the
machine to Goodwill. Any help would be appreciated.
