general linux, sympatico and internet problem
i have 2 linux boxes, on centos 4.3 running a fairly new dlink network card. a second running fedora core 5, using onboard nvidia NIC. both feed into a dlink switch, recently chnaged from a linksys switch.
that then connects to a dlink di-604 router whihc then connects to a standard bell sympatico (canada) ADSL "modem". The damned thing is that under either linux system, weather it ben the centos fedora, bottable knoppix or ubuntu, the internet is slow, if i enter an IP it works isntantly but anyhting rquring a lookup is dead slow or times out.......any ideas, comments or questuions??
