Phil,
The router was supplied by iinet...
Interestingly, when I experienced those problems, another lap on the same router worked immediatelly (this is what gave me idea to look into LAN cabling etc.)
I think I tried old router in the beginning (with incorp[orated ADSL modem) and the observed behaviour was the same (desktop funny, laptop worked every time).
Anyway.. it doesn't matter, now I routinely toggle the LAN adapter (DNS server is set to 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 and that helps every time.
