Totem being picky about the connection?

Hi everyone,

As my exploration through Fedora is going quite well (and due to recent problems that I haven't been able to fix in Ubuntu, it's drawing me to Fedora even more), I still have another small question.

I listen to basslover.de constantly, and when I click on the Windows Media Player button to start that stream, Totem starts getting picky about my connection. We have two wireless networks (for a specific reason), and whenever I pick the faster router, Totem happily plays, but refuses to play on the slower one. I know it's not an internet problem because I can play from either network in Ubuntu, and I also updated my wireless in Fedora with a new set of madwifi drivers. Is this something I can fix?

EDIT: Also, if this isn't clear, Totem is playing the stream inside Firefox.

EDIT 2: Hmm, strange. It suddenly worked on the slower connection if I changed DHCP settings to Manual and then gave in details along with the Google Public DNS servers. However, this works in Ubuntu while on DHCP.

Bump? It would be great if I can fix this (yes, I'm somewhat a perfectionist where everything has to work right lol).

Another EDIT: I found out that when I right click the player inside Firefox, and choose Open in "Movie Player", it gets a "Cannot find" error, although it has no problem whatsoever anywhere else, as well as in Ubuntu.
