I recently applied the 7.3.2 firmware to the AEBS. Since then I've been having problem with long ping times. After applying the firmware update, my computer couldn't detect the AEBS for about 12 hours. Eventually it magically started working by itself.

When I connect to the router by wireless it takes forever for sites to load. It will say "loading" for a good 15-20 seconds. Once it finds the site then everything downloads as fast as normal. And the weird thing is I don't have this problem when connected through ethernet.

I have restored the iMac with a Time Machine backup but that didn't solve anything. I really don't want to do a clean install when I think the problem is related to the AEBS. I have tried rolling back to the previous firmware and still nothing changes.

I have connected the PS3 through wireless and it can get websites and downloads as fast as ever. So I can't decide if the problem is the AEBS or iMac.

I was hoping someone might have some advice on what to do. I really don't want to call Apple. Especially if it turns out to be something silly that I should be able to figure out. Sorry for the long post.
