I have a situation with a user running web application on his local machine for testing. This machine is not connected to the internet. The application is very responsive at this point. However, when the user plugs his local machine into a wireless router (Belkin, still not connected to the internet), the application slows right down and becomes borderline unresponsive. Does anyone have any idea why this might be?

Please add what operating system is the machine using and what web server. Thank you. – Ricardo Polo Aug 26 '11 at 15:11
Windows 7 and IIS. – user67422 Aug 26 '11 at 16:08
It is a DNS issue. Period. Like local domain name equals a domain in global DNS. – mailq Aug 26 '11 at 18:45

"when the user plugs his local machine into a wireless router"

Is this via a wired connection? Do other applications to/with this system also exhibit similar challenges?

If it is a wired connection and the symptoms extend to other applications across the system, then you may want to take a look at the line settings on the system's NIC. There may be a situation where the "auto-negotiation" between the NIC and the Belkin is unsuccessful in determining a working configuration.
