Two weeks ago, my desktop would connect to wired internet as soon as booted up my machine. I don't know what changed, but now my internet takes about two minutes to connect to the internet after I hit my desktop. It's starting to become a major inconvenience. What could be causing this?

Various things according to the logs. I've removed 4 programs that the Debugger says are related. One program I uninstalled was cFosSpeed, an internet speed accelerator that came with my MoBo. I suppose this problem did start after I uninstalled that, but I don't want to reinstall a program that gave me BSOD :/

Hmmm. I would perhaps try and strip out any manufacturer's drivers for the Network card/chipset, and see if you can install up to date generic ones for your hardware. I'd also check the MOBO manufactures websites and look at the driver update notes for any known issues.
