The solution I used for my Kubuntu machine was to assign it a static IP
address. Then make 192.168.0.1 as the third DNS server no problems so
far. Also if you have the GT701-WG Actiontec DSL "modem" (all the
Actiontec DSL "modems" that Qwest uses are really routers) I'd suggest
using the firmware that was released earlier this year. The current
version is "QW05-3.60.3.0.7.5-GT701-WG" if you wanted to know.

I took out one of the IP addresses in /etc/resolv.conf and Firefox behaves
much better but it will just get repopulated with the same addresses on the
next boot, is that right? I found these directions for diabling ipv6. Does
this look about right?
I made 2 changes before I rebooted, so I can't be certain which one (or
both?) actually had the effect of disabling ipv6 on boot.
1. vi /etc/sysctl.conf - add
net.ipv6.conf.eth1.autoconf = 0
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.autoconf = 0
net.ipv6.conf.default.autoconf = 0
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf = 0
net.ipv6.conf.lo.autoconf = 0
2. vi /etc/modprobe.d/aliases - changed
#alias net-pf-10 ipv6
#to
alias net-pf-10 off
# and added
alias ipv6 off
then ran update-modules
then reboot.
