Can't access 192.168.2.1 + really slow browsing.

Hello, I have 2 problems.
Firstly, I cannot connect to 192.168.2.1 to change the router's settings, tried in both, firefox and konqueror.
Secondly, browsing websites is really annoying, the website's take 10 seconds to load but once connected to the website it runs fast.
e.g. I go to Archlinux.org and it loads 10-20s, but when I click lnk forums, it loads instantly.
No problems with browsing websites on windoze.

Any idea what's up?

Please post ifconfig -a output for your NIC plus route and /etc/resolv.conf.

Looks like I fixed it

# Generated by dhcpcd from eth0
# /etc/resolv.conf.head can replace this line
search Belkin
nameserver 192.168.2.1
nameserver 208.67.222.222
nameserver 208.67.220.220
#nameserver 62.31.144.39
# /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line

bash-3.2# cat /etc/rc.local
#!/bin/bash
#
# /etc/rc.local: Local multi-user startup script.
#

echo "208.67.220.220" > /etc/resolv.conf
echo "208.67.220.222" >> /etc/resolv.conf

And the 192.168.2.1 started to magically work. Weird..

Mmh, I don't like your solution.

Mainly, if you get the address from a DHCP server, try to fix that. I bet something is not correctly configured router-side. Second, there's plenty of documentation on how to use /etc/rc.conf or netcfg + netprofiles on how to override DNS settings.

Try to disable ipv6.
