I'm using a Dlink powerline ethernet connection and I had no problems with my past and other computers in the house. I currently have to wait several minutes (usually around 5 mins) until internet works on my computer. The taskbar shows that the computer is connected to the internet but internet doesn't work until then. I press troubleshoot problems, and it cannot detect any problems. My applications such as Skype also cannot connect, so it is not just my browser. Any clues? Thanks in advance.

Some routers delay the connection. I have a Billion router wich takes 4 minutes to connect to ISP. You can try to update your router firmware.
