I have a fast connection here, I forget the exact speed but download can easily go up to 2MB/s, I know that depends on the download server but that's the only information I can give you. Gaming is a breeze, connection is amazing. Everything except browsing the internet is real fast, but Youtube, BF2s, etc. goes ridiculously fucking slow.

Is there anyway something is blocking my browsing in some way? This connection is faster than my connection in Switzerland and it's 10x slower when browsing. Takes a year to get into the BF2s forums, Facebook, Youtube, etc.

EDIT: I'm using Avast antivirus, I don't know if that's slowing it down somehow.

Sometimes its DNS server, I know my ISPs one is shit.  Try forcing it to OpenDNS or GoogleDNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4)

I already did that Bevo, to no avail.

I find it weird my download rate, connection rate, gaming connection, etc is really fast, but this is running darn slow.

I've got Chrome, Firefox and IE installed. Cache is gone on all of them, Chrome runs faster (It always does anyway).
