I've just installed FreeBSD 6.0 Release yesterday, I've spend the last
two days trying to resolve a networking problem, the problem is this:
when I try and connect to a domain or an IP for that matter, it takes
several minutes for it to connect + receive the content. It doesn't
seem to effect all addresses though, I've had no problems connecting
to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org to download software etc., nor have I had any
problems connecting to domains inside my LAN.

As far as I can tell, it isn't a dns problem because I can ping
without any problems.

I would really appreciate any advice anybody can give me. I've
included some information below which may help diagnose the problem.

Thanks,

Paul
