New Netgear wireless modem, slower speeds?

Hello all

I had a Netgear wireless router in my home, but it only broadcasted WirelessG. Had a giftcard to Bestbuy so i upgraded to a newer model that has WirelessN and the faster speeds since i do online gaming.

Netgear N300 is my exact model.

Internet speeds and connection were fine before, now all of a sudden im having issues.

It doesnt seem like a "slow" connection, its almost as if its a delayed connection. For example when i load google.com it should load semi-instantly, but i had a 7 second delay. Screen was white, in bottom bar it says "looking up google.com". On other sites it says "Connecting to www.whatever.com" and it will take the same approx 7 seconds to load. Sometimes the page times out.

Is this a setting i screwed up? I have tried rebooting pc, tried restarting both router and modem.

What gives?
