Slow Internet browsing on new laptop

Hi :) I've read the entire thread and replies, and I've been having the same problem as embraze... but all this DNS discussion seemed a bit chinese even though I've went through reading them twice. This thread is a bit old, but if anyone is still around can I get a summarized help of what I should do to fix it?
Thank you anyways :)

Theo, are you sure it's the same problem?
This DNS thing actually did really well for me and I'm still using it. However, I found out that the main problem with me was a compatibility issue between my Samsung laptop and the d-Link router I had. Apparently it's a "known" issue with those specific models and I only found this out when I went to the manufacturers. So even though the DNS thing works, it still got time-outs later on. On a new router, everything works fine but I'm still using the DNS Benchmark software for faster browsing.
So make sure first that there is no other issue. Then I'll try to explain it to you from my experience of it (unless some other techier person wants to step it xD).
 
This thread is a bit old now, But I think I got the same problem and I don't really understand what you lot were talking about so if you still around it will be great.
 
Ok, so I have a problem similar to this, the difference is, my laptop, ipod and phone all work fine on my wireless network, but whenever I connect my laptop straight to my modem it won't connect to the internet at all, it wont identify the network and it says it doesn't have to correct ip configurations, the only reason I wanted to have my laptop hardwired, is just to see how fast it is with a 1gbps connection, on wifi I get 100mbps, but its still kinda slow art times, is there anything I can do to get my laptop to recognize the modem?? I have tried spoofing but had no luck there.
