To be frank, I'm really a newbie with linux. I find this solution on a
forum where a user had the same problem with his browser.

It changes nothing.

It seems to be the root of the problem: it's better now but it's not
perfect. I don't know if it can help but I just realize that one month
ago I added a router between my computer and my primary gateway so I can
also connect my xbox. I really don't use linux often recently and
windows seems not having problem with it so that's why I forget about
it.
Also, can you tell me if the way I proceed to know my dns address is ok
(I'm really not an expert with network stuff)? At first, I check the
hosts file and the address was 127.0.0.0. To know what is my real dns
address, I use my web browser on windows and login on my primary gateway
to find it. I find 2 address but only the second seems to have an
effect in /etc/hosts.
Thanks
