Hi from me as well, IMightAsWellBashMyHeadIn. 

 

Can you please clarify what’s the default browser you’re using at the moment? 

 

Can you check if there are any pending updates, clear its cache, and also disable any possible plugins?

 

If that doesn’t make a difference either, please send me your browser version, and we’ll check this further.

Hi Nancy,

So far I have on the same PC tried Microsoft Edge v119.0.2151.44
& Firefox v119.0.1

I’ve also tried on an IPhone the IOS app v352.2.2

Both are extremely slow at uploading.

Like I have said, this was never an issue until Dropbox updated their web interface last week.

 

I am not having any other trouble with download or upload speeds on my devices.
