hi,

every half hour or so, for 1-2 minutes my browser will stop navigating to sites, "waiting for ... to respond.." within 2 minutes i will be able to connect to sites and browse like normal again. weird thing is, while i cannot connect to sites, i get ping replies from any .com i type in.

this happens on my home wireless network, using FF and IE on a win7 desktop AND FF on an ubuntu laptop

the network is wpa2 secured, these are the only connections.
