Tried that and still get the issue.

The same issue just happened in IE9.

Wired

Try using Google's DNS servers.

Also, due to the symptoms you are suggesting it looks a lot like packet loss.

Open command prompt and type in the following:

ping www.google.com -t

That will run test continously until you close the window, let us know if there are time outs anywhere or if they are all replied to.

What was the response from the command?

I get bytes=32, time=32ms, TTL=50. A big list of them!

No responses that say timeed out?
