I have found the culprit, I had not enabled QoS in the router, nor the old one had it. But how come I don't have the same problem in Gutsy or Windows? Probably they have this QoS integrated?
I would love a graphical interface for a Quality of Service within the Ubuntu operating system, one that would manage and prioritize my browsing stuff with basic (if not none) configuration.

P.S. I think I know why my apt-get/aptitude update is affected, I'm participating in the package survey, it could be that this survet uploads data to a server about the installed packages. So, if that is true the problem here is the upload, it uses 100% of the network upload bandwidth, not allowing me to browse freely my other internet destinations.
