Yes, and I can connect to a lot of sites. Just some sites give me grief. Also, I can ping the sites that won't load.
What message is displayed in the browser(s)?
If you can ping google.com and get something like this:
mw290364@lagothrix:~ > ping google.com
PING google.com (216.239.35.100): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 216.239.35.100: icmp_seq=0 ttl=49 time=339.345 ms
64 bytes from 216.239.35.100: icmp_seq=4 ttl=49 time=330.222 ms
--- google.com ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 329.856/333.899/339.960 ms
...this suggests that name resolution is working.
Type the following as root before dialing to see what's happening when the
connection goes up:
root@lagothrix:/etc > tail -f /var/log/messages
I'm not too familiar with your set-up since I just set my Smoothie as the
default gateway. Is it possible that your ISP is blocking some sites? Perhaps
someone else has a few ideas?

I have a ethereal sniffer file that I could send anyone who would like to help. It's not a huge file, but bigger than most of you would want to see on this list. Any help would be most appreciated. TIA, Jim John McNulty wrote:

PMJI....I missed the earlier part of this thread, and am going mostly on the subject line. Has anyone checked to see if Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) is enabled at the kernel level on the client machine? To check: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn Zero means disabled, one means enabled. To disable: echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn (as root of course). E-mail me off-list if you need an explanation of what ECN is.
