Already check other channels.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Solved - kind of
 

Well I got rid of the double-NAT issue and am using the M1000 modem for NAT, DNS, and DCHP.

The connectivity issue has gone away. There is now a substantial delay before any web queries start, but once they start, they go as expected. I don't know why, but it seems to be an issue with the modem.

I have found numerous posts from people complaining about the routing capabilities of the M1000, so I may set it as a bridge and let the wifi router handle the PPPoE bit. Perhaps during all of my free time.

Thanks for the help and suggestions.

This type of problem is almost always an issue with one of your DNS Servers.

I've tried all kinds of hardware options and dns settings. The delay is always there, albeit slightly less if I take the wifi router out of the question.

The only constant is the modem. I have tried opendns, the isp's dns servers, different public dns servers, etc.

Who owns modem?
 

Do you own the modem, or does your ISP?

If they do, you might be able to swap it out.

I started renting mine from my ISP after the first two I bought went belly up before amortizing themselves.
