Problem #1: I'm on DSL (Speedtest.net won't load right now - it's related to my problem) and on WiFi using Linksys WRT54G Router, and life's been a breeze before (it's been 10 months with my MacBook) but my internet experience has been crap lately.
Safari 3 (and Firefox 2 along with Opera) displays much more error messages frequently, like "lost network connection" and "server stopped responding". Sometimes it won't even load pages at all, it would just show a message that says, "Contacting _(site)_" but nothing would happen and it would show "Failed to open page" after a while. There are also times wherein it would load the page but it would leave a lot of images as question marks, or it would just stop loading halfway then it would show a blank page; forcing me to refresh repeatedly. It's really annoying since Macs are optimized for the web, but I've no idea why this is happening.
Problem #2: My Safari's autofill just won't work. It won't fill usernames and passwords (heck, it doesn't even prompt me to save them) and other data. Yes, I do have them checked in the preferences.
Problem #3: Everytime I turn off AirPort and turn it back on and select my wireless network, it will prompt for Keychain Access and I would put in "Always Allow"; and yet it would ask me for the wireless network's password. Over and over again.
Problem #4: This is most shallow, but just in case.. why is it that in Transmission (torrent), it would show that I'm downloading 5 from 75 peers. There are 75 peers for goodness' sake, so why am I just connected to 5?
Conclusion: I have absolutely no idea why in the world these things are happening. I never encountered problems with my MB before and I was so happy with that, but recently I'm downright disappointed. I'm thinking of reinstalling the OS but that would be so much of a hassle. Can anyone please help me? I'm in a serious jam here.

I'm sorry for the extremely long post guys, it's just that it would be more disorganized if I made several posts. Please help me! Thanks in advance.
