Thank you pointers, I've spoken to the network guy, he will help to monitor connections on the firewall.
On the other hand, if I use ip addresses this should not attract any possible issues with DNS, right?
Thanks!
Dmitri.

Delays that are almost exactly 3 seconds over a network are almost always

Inside a datacenter, mis-configured load balancers or routers can cause low
level network issues that result in intermittent network delays of exactly 3
seconds (a loop in a routing network?).
DNS timeouts are often 3 seconds.
Not sure if any of the above is it, but this sounds like a network
configuration problem to me.
