    JH, it's not likely your connection, but rather your ISP DNS servers are overloaded. When you click on a URL, that hostname needs to be resolved by the DNS to an IP address in order to load content in your browser. If the DNS server is heavily taxed by numerous users (because your ISP is cheaping out?), then you'll see a delay when loading a site. It will appear that there is a pause when you click on a link followed by the site loading rather quickly (unless it has ads on it that also have links to different hosts requiring even more DNS lookups). As an experiment, go to a site and see how long it takes to load. Then go to another page on that same site and see how quickly it loads. Hope that helps.
