Gmail timing out

Not sure why, but I'm having regular trouble getting through to Gmail from home the last couple of weeks. Firefox waits and waits, then times out. Ping's okay:

$ ping gmail.google.com
PING gmail.l.google.com (72.14.205.107) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 72.14.205.107: icmp_seq=1 ttl=239 time=167 ms
64 bytes from 72.14.205.107: icmp_seq=2 ttl=239 time=167 ms

--- gmail.l.google.com ping statistics ---

2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1000ms

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 167.005/167.055/167.105/0.050 ms

$

Maybe I should Google for the answer? (Update: "gmail not responding" first hit is for a mail Subject: slapd not responding to sasl_bind. Hmm.)
