    Please verify that you have the latest driver for your Realtek network adapter, visit their site here. I would uninstall the current driver then install the new driver.

    Hi 2xg - thanks!

    Updated onboard network adapter driver = problem still exists.

    I wondered about replacing the network card with a more recent model. All the card spares I have are older XP-era. It might be worth $NZ17.00 to rule out the card once and for all.

    I don't know why I didn't notice it before but soon after boot-to-desktop the Eset icon in notification area is active, performing a start-up scan. I disabled this function in Eset but it made no difference.

    Sorry for the delay, too busy... It might help changing the NIC... but, can you please try changing the secondary DNS from your LAN setting to any of these Google DNS'es?

    Is your computer the only one that's having an issue?

    Another thing, please create a different User Account, log on as that new User and see if you can replicate the issue.

    No worries or expectations 2xg :)

    Tried changing the secondary DNS = No change. Abandoned at 7 minutes because test webpage would not load.

    Is your computer the only one that's having an issue? = Possibly the only one in the known universe with this problem :) I previously used the DGN1000 with XP/SP3 and connection only took seconds.
    Can you also try connecting directly to the Modem = The Netgear DGN1000 won't let me do that.

    Create a different User Account
    = Will try that in the morning.

    I also reinstalled the DGN to double check the settings = made no difference

    Hi 2xg
    Sorry for the delay. I gave myself a bout of food-poisoning which knocked me flat for a day or so. Very bad but saved by a tablespoon of powdered charcoal. Something you did not want to know :)

    Set up a new user account this morning but the time to a live webpage was just as laggy.

    Applied a de-oxy spray to the wall filter box plugs and sockets = no difference

    Routed a LAN cable from XP PC to a spare port on DGN1000 and rebooted XP = Time to live webpage took under 30 seconds. This appears to confirm that the router settings to the outside world are OK.

    No worries, I hope that you are feeling much better now. I know how it is.... been there, it wasn't fun.
    Let's try something else.....Scan your computer for possible spyware by using either Free Malwarebytes or SuperAntiSpyware.

    If the issue still persist, you may try uninstalling Eset by using the removal tool, might be worth to try. You may of course reinstall it back.

    If Eset is not the culprit, you may change the network card.

    Thanks 2xg

    Malwarebytes = clear

    Eset = I added Eset around 3 months ago, post problem.

    Network card = Currently using the onboard mobo NIC with same result as PCI card

    Double-checked the Asus H87-Pro Bio settings = Nothing seemed out of place.

    Ran a network repair using the Asus mobo install CD = no change
