That's not where the problem is. Since you are working with forwarding 
on, the problem has to be when you try to go directly to the internet 
over UDP so it would be at the firewall or border router.  When DNS 
fails, it will retry with TCP and that might be why it eventually works. 
   Is there anything in the path to the internet that needs a lower MTU 
(perhaps a DNS line running PPOE)?  Or do you have jumbo packets enabled 
on your Gig NIC?  And if you do need a small MTU, do you have firewalls 
blocking the ICMP messages that are required to discover that automatically?
