Dan, I believe that would point to the machine itself and not a situation
with your base station. Usually, a slow machine would indicate an issue on
that machine itself since the other machine is functioning as expected.

Since you didn't say where the "slow" is happening specifically, you might
try some things like clearing your browser cache and perhaps looking at
parasites or Trojans which may have infected that machine. There's some
really good information, including an online checker, here:
