Alright.  This means that (most likely) your laptop is asking your router
to resolve rsync.gentoo.org and that router is giving back bad
response(s), at least at first.  You should check the configuration of the
DNS server on the router.

Ok, this is already a useful information

If you need further assistance, I'll need to know more about your router,
specifically it's firm- and software.  Also, if the router isn't running
Gentoo, we may need to take this off-list of (at least) mark further
messages as off-topic.

It is Netgear WGR614 v6, and it is not running Gentoo.

If you want to confirm the problem is with the router, break out your
generic DNS clients (dig/nslookup) and network monitoring tools (tcpdump
et al.).  Of course, your router my simply be giving bad responses because
it's getting bad responses from further upstream.

Thanks for all the advices.
