40 seconds to load? Might be a DNS issue. To verify, find the IP address to a website, and check if it loads instantly when using the IP address in stead of the name of the website. If it IS a DNS issue, check if perhaps the primary DNS of the router is unavailable (or perhaps incorrect?).

A host or nslookup command would do the trick. :) A little easier solution: compare http://www.nu.nl and http://62.69.184.29
