Occasionally, when I do a google search or attempt to go to a google.com site, it will just hang with the circle spinning. Closing the tab and opening a new one won’t fix it. Only closing the browser seems to fix it.
While this is occurring, I can (in a terminal) ping google.com or Google and it comes up instantly.
This occurs in** chrome and firefox** and happens both in openSUSE 12.1 and 12.2 on a wired and wireless connection.
My router is using google’s DNS:** 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4** as my two main DNS’s.
All other sites will continue working. It’s only google sites that hang. Sometimes when it’s hanging in chrome, I can go to google in firefox and vice versa.
How do I figure out what’s occurring and how to fix it?

I think I read a similar report recently. That report mentioned the ISP
as Jaztel. Is that yours?
Because in that case it would be a problem with the ISP.

Many things can cause your problem.
For starters, recommend
Clear your browser and name resolution cache, you may simply have tried to connect during a hiccup or site update of some sort. If the problem is with the site, a page refresh might work.
