WiFi never loads pages

[Dr Fatsides]

My rooted Droid X shows that I connect to public networks but never loads any pages. The page partially loads but then I just get the spinny thing forever. I don't have a wireless network at home, but public networks at Barnes and Noble, Panera, Starbucks etc just never load a page (Market, CNN, etc) even though my phone says I'm connected to their network. I usually show 2-4 wireless bars when "connected". If I disconnect wireless and go to 3G the page loads OK. This is an ongoing problem, it did not just start.

Anybody got any ideas?

TIA
