Hey all, I just installed SL a few hours ago and started on the avatar island. The moment I logged in I noticed that textures were loading quite slowly and I also have a very low fps.
Here are my pc specs:
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.80GHz (2 CPUs)
Memory: 2046MB RAM
Card name: ASUS EAH4850 series
Display Memory: 1024.0 MB
Got the newest drivers also.
Connection is wired, any port forwarding I might be missing?

Around the same results.. slightly better, ran the SL lag meter and the ones showing up with a red circle besides them were Client and Network.
Since I'm connecting through a router I guess that might be the cause, I have tried port forwarding but I might have messed up on that one. Any place I can find a list of ports to forward?
Also, the textures seem to be loading slowly and I think it's not because of an old graphics card since mine is quite new.
edit: just re-forwarded the ports I got from one of those SL help sites (being: 13000-13050 , 443, 12043, 12035-12036) didn't seem to help though.

Seems to be a network problem then. You can do some general test at speedtest.net. Please also disable your local firewall/port blocking and forwarding in your router. Make sure you have proper connectivity before you try to close ports.
On the other hand your provider may do exactly this and block certain ports. You did not provide any information about that.
