I'm having problems with the internet connection on my Ubuntu 13.04. I deleted Windows 7 from my computer (where the internet worked without any kind of problems) and installed Ubuntu 13.04, but now i'm having some trouble here.
I can't connect to the internet using my WiFi, it connects to my router. DEPENDING, on the site that I pings on terminal it doesn't have answer. I can't browse on internet using it and Ubuntu can't connect to archive.ubuntu to download packages or updates.
To used my cable connection I had to restart my notebook some times until it connects and it keeps barely working. It seems like I'm using a 90's internet connection. When I try to download or update certain packages, most of the connections to the server are unsuccessful.
I'd like some help, thanks.

(Based on input from your other question that got deleted...)
The one thing I can think of that the software center, apt-get, and the "certain websites" you mentioned (including Facebook and YouTube when you're logged in) all have in common is that they use an encrypted connection.
So maybe it's a problem with encrypted connections. Please confirm this by trying out several websites with and without SSL (provided they support it). For example, try both:
If my guess is correct, the first one should load without problems but the second one should be slow.
Now to be honest, I have little clue as to what you should attempt to do in order to fix this. I can suggest one thing that might and might not be useful, and that would be reconfiguring all SSL related packages on your system.
First, query them using:
Then, after stripping the version and architecture (if any), you can reconfigure them using:
You might want to reboot after reconfiguring them.
Also, while at it, you can try booting up a live CD/USB and seeing whether things work well from there.
