I have a high-speed cable Internet connection at home and at various times I have a network timeout issue, where I do not get a response from the DNS server and the connection times out. I can usually connect to Google but when I click on any of the links to other sites they do not respond, they just keep on trying to load until they time out. The page often says that there is a DNS server timeout.

Jump to PostCheck your network card configuration and see what DNS or name servers you are querying for the information.
You can always try adding a public name server (like the one at 4.2.2.2) to your DNS list as a third server to check with.
Jump to Postwith some cable ISPs they require specific timeout settings on your router, this could be the issue. call your ISP and find out the optimal settings .. also set your network card duplexing to 1000full or 100full AND do the stuff rch1231 said :)
