XMBCbuntu LONG delays on starting Internet Streaming

$

Was running XMBC 10 for AGGGGEESSS without much issue

Am now running Frodo 12.2 on the same box (a Zotac ID41)

For the most part - using the LAN, it seems to work flawlessly, but when it comes to pulling information from the internet, it seems to have issues.

I can playback data from the file server's SMB share flawlessly, but when I got to play a trailer, or a youtube clip, or stream an internet radio station it WILL do it, after a delay anywhere from 30 seconds to 6 minutes before it plays the stream.

I thought it might be the youtube add-on, but it does it with the radio add-on as well. Then I noticed the weather add-on is also taking a LONG LONG time to update when I first load or click refresh, likewise getting the list of available trailers to view with TrailerAddict takes forever too, as does Funny or Die and College Humor

So it seems like, local LAN it's working a treat, but accessing anything from the internet takes AGES

/etc/network/interfaces
Code:
root@zotac:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.254
dns-nameservers 203.12.160.35 203.12.160.36

Thought it might be my routing tables, but aside from not having any routing for the Local Loopback interface, it seems ok.

Code:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
0.0.0.0         192.168.1.254   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
192.168.1.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     1      0        0 eth0

resolv.conf
Code:
root@zotac:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 203.12.160.35
nameserver 203.12.160.36
nameserver 127.0.1.1

Process List
Code:
no long pastes here pls

The frustrating thing is that when logged into the shell, the internet is working well enough I can apt-get and install vim to work with instead of nano without any issue.
Likewise, installing new add-ons appears to have no noticeable delay

xbmc.log file from when I told it to play a YouTube Clip via my Android phone:
Code:
no logs here please

It took it 20 minutes to play the YouTube clip from when I gave the instruction to it actually playing.
It TRIED to start straight away - I got the Loading Stream message immediately, it just then sat there for 20 minutes before it kicked in.

This is standard for any sort of stream at the moment.

If I go to open an internet radio stream, - same thing happens....

I'm happy to consider that I've done something stupid - just don't know WHAT?

Any thoughts?
