Are you using a router? I would suggest power-cycling (turning it off then back on) if you are. Seems almost like a resolution failure. I know that when I have strange problems like that, I usually have to reset my router (though I am using ISDN as opposed to you xDSL).

OP
no, i'm not using a router. i notice that during the server query, my modem shows activity (its an extrenal Westell modem from Bell Atlantic). but right before the query is done, there is NO activity. i do feel its network related, it can't be anyting else. but regular surfing is fine, the network settings in unreal tournament seem fine and i was able to chat in unreal tournament...hope that helps...
