Every once in a while in completely random intervals (sometimes works for an hour sometimes 5 minutes) my browsers stop working, they "work" but I am unable to connect to any webpages and is only fixed by rebooting.

I can delay rebooting by switching to a different browser say Chrome but that after some time also stops working.

To reiterate the browser works fine, but the internet does not, HOWEVER any other application that uses the internet still works fine, Games, Teamspeak, MSN, ventrilo, you name it I got it still works.

I suspected router trouble but that doesn't explain why I need to reboot to fix it when restarting the router does nothing.

When you say you're "unable to connect to any webpages," what does that mean? What message do you get? Can you continue to ping webpages successfully from the command line?

Yes i can ping them successfully, but the connection sorta times out when I try to connect but doesn't time out, it will for an infinite amount of time attempt to connect and never times out but never connects.

The page is loading bar on the botton of the browser would still be loading but the page never loads.
