Sounds like the DNS in the router your connected to is the common factor.
Probably unable to resolve the domain name (eg: could be your ISP, or wherever the DNS settings point at).
FWIW: There's a bug in pretty much every D-Link router ATM that means if you visit a malicious web page, the web page can change your DNS settings to a different server (so they control where you go). May be some other brands affected too.
Worth checking the DNS settings in your router, just in case.
thanks Cefiar,i will do that.

Many routers don't handle DNS well, so use the DNSBench tool to find the best DNS server for you.
Check your network settings in Windows (or whatever) and see if it has your router's IP address as the DNS server (probably something like 192.168.x.x), if so, might want to change your Windows (or whatever) setting to specific, well performing DNS servers for faster and better response (see the "configuring your DNS servers" page, link at bottom of main page).
