Could you characterize "very slowly" more specifically? for example,
pick a particular web site and measure the time it takes to load.
Also, could you try with another web browser (like epiphany, which
should be pre-installed with a stock debian desktop) on the same page?
If both browsers seem equally slow, another thing worth looking at would
be the choice of network uplink -- if you're seeing slowness when
connected to your local wireless (even though it's fast under another
OS), can you try the same thing again connected to a wired connection?
That would help to rule out network driver flakiness as a source of delay.
