Yup, just rebooted mine (D15). Seems a trifle slower browsing now.

Had to reboot mine several times over the past week, only seems to happen when I'm downloading torrents (linux of course ) and I try and surf the net.

I was having the same issue with browsing the net whilst downloading torrents until last night... I would have to restart my laptop and router everytime i wanted to resume browsing teh net!

I then realised that it was actually DNS that was not working... So somwhow or another I can not coinnect to BTs DNS servers when uTorrent is open

So i manually hardcoded my DNS to 4.2.2.1+4.2.2.2 (Level 3 - a Tier 1 ISPs Publically Available DNS servers)

Seems to be working fine now - guess i'll find out for sure this evening
