If it doesn't happen when the machines are on another network, then there's a problem with your network connection, not your browser.
Not strange settings my ISP or router would need set differently from default? Argh. I was hoping it might be something fixable on my end.
Did it used to work and then stop? It's highly unlikely IMO that there'd be some strange setting, unless your ISP was doing something very non-standard.
Have you tried removing the router and directly connecting one of the machines to your Internet connection? It could be your router is bad.
Yeah, same thing happens, though.
Have you tried making a new administrator account on the computer, logging completely out of your old account and into the new account, and then try to connect? I'm completely pulling this out of the air, but it might be worth a shot.
If it isn't your software and it isn't your hardware, then your options are to live with it or get your ISP to help diagnose the problem.
