In my FC7, using Firefox, if for example, I access

(I note that my browser is set to delete all
private on closing.) During this delay, the
browser reports that it is looking up the URL.
If I then wait a few minutes I can repeat the
whole scenario.
I suspect that something similar may be happening
with my Pan news reader.
Any suggestions?
It seems your DNS lookup is intermittently slow. I'd log into the
router/web gateway (192.168.1.1 in your browser or so) and run the DNS
lookup diagnostic test - if it is shows similar behaviour, you will
know it's a problem with your internet provider. I used to see such
problems in the past and IIRC they always cleared up upon talking to
the provider.
