Sounds like nameserver timeouts
Clues you can try to learn what you machine is doing:
more /etc/host.conf
man host.conf
more /etc/resolv.conf
man resolv.conf
netstat -ra # look at default route
vi /etc/rc.conf # patch out sk line if you dont want it.
if you'r new to Unix & nets etc, & find the above a bit much,
rather than reinstall, you can reconfig by
su
/usr/sbin/sysinstall # Valid path on my 6.0-BETA4
# /stand/sysintall # other path I recall
Do post-install configuration of FreeBSD
Configure additional network services
Configure additional network interfaces
