Wired and have latest firmware.

Also, sometimes when opening some sites, it load for a couple of seconds before the page opens up.

Why has my router slow response? It doesnt blink fast when it should.

What kind of internet connection do you have? Cable or DSL?

And what is the make and model of the modem?

I have a cable directly from my wall to the router.

DIR-655 - 1.30EU - A4

Try upgrading the firmware to the EU version and see if that improves it.

Also what DNS addresses are you using?

Are you using securespot?

I just installed 1.33NA and wonder if "Advanced DNS Service" should be on or off?

[Cobra]

I don't use it as my ISP has this.
It should be unchecked by default.

Regardless of your connection type to your ISP (DHCP, PPPoE,...), you need at least a DNS server (DNS server will resolve your typed in hostname to IP) to get on the wire. Advanced DNS feature simply fill out these DNS server entries here with DNS servers runs by OpenDNS for D-Link. It has some funky features, but typically it's slower than your ISP DNS servers.

Personally, I prefer Google DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) over my ISP and OpenDNS server. At my place, It is faster than OpenDNS, a little slower than my ISP's but it does not block some sites.

Have you contacted DLink Tech Support yet? I believe it's 24/7. They may be able to assist you for free if your router is under the one year warranty period.

wait a minute. you said you have cable directly from your wall to your router. That's impossible since the router is not a modem. Where is your modem?
