I just re-installed Arch Linux and now I am plagued with an issue that I had on Gentoo but not on my old Arch installation. Downloads start with a decent speed and then the download goes all the way (sometimes to 0 bytes/second) and then the speed bounces all the way from 0 bytes to 3mb (though it rarely goes that high. I've seen other people fix this issue by installing dnsmasq but then the guides don't tell you what to do with it and it doesn't do anything. And adding the following lines to as this guide suggested doesn't help either:
