. . .have to wait 20 to 30 seconds for ihub. . .
I have the same issue. As far as I can tell, the delay does not originate at either end, but by something along the route.
tracert investorshub.advfn.com
When I try Tracert, I can watch the activity. I get from home to New York, then Dallas, then Kansas City. A couple of hops after that and I get "Request timed out" messages.
Cheers, PW.
