This bug affects me too but I found a simple work around. Edit your settings in network manager and put your routers IP address as the last one in the DNS servers box. Find your providers primary and secondary DNS server IP addresses and ensure they are listed first. Once you make the change you need to disable networking and then re enable it for the change to take effect. Browsing is speedy now! I hope this helps everyone get going for now but I also hope the bug gets fixed because there is no reason your router should not be able to be listed first.
