Interestingly - the page itself loads quickly, its not that the data is trickling into my router, it is a 20-30 second delay, then boom, it loads

Same issue on other devices or connection. Reboot the router?

Now you know why when calling a help desk the first thing they get you to do is reboot the modem

It doesn't. Restarting the modem simply forces it to obtain a new connection. I have to do the same on my dial-up connection by simply disconnecting and reconnecting to "fix" some problems as well (or even simply forcing multiple attempts to load the page can help: Go-Stop-Reload-Stop-Reload-Stop-Reload-Stop-Reload). The fault is at Vodafone's end, possibly the "invisible" proxy forgetting you exist.
