Safari/Firefox problems

When I use my laptop in the office it’s attached to a network.

When I use it at home, it’s attached to my home network. So far no problems.

However, when I’m out of the office it seems to take about 2 minutes for it to think about my password. Then, it usually asks me for it again saying that it was wrong the first time round. This happens a lot of the time.

Now, although I’m connected to the network at home, neither Safari or Firefox will work.

I’m connected to the network because I can make and receive calls
on skype.

It's been suggested that I re-install the OS.

Any suggestions?

At work, is your laptop set up in some kind of network authentication environment, like Active Directory (Windows server, typically) or Open Directory (Mac OS X server, typically)? Do you authenticate against a user account stored on a server somewhere?
