hmm maybe we're having MTU problems then. I have a netgear attached to SBC DSL and spoofing the MAC address of the original computer we subscribed with. Most things work perfectly, after manually setting the DNS on the inside network to SBC's settings -- apparently netgear's DNS proxying is broken as it advertises itself with in the DHCP, which only works very irregularly -- I can do a traceroute and the occasional hop is identified but not many -- some web sites, such as yahoo webmail, return empty pages. I will try lowering the MTU on my laptop and see if yahoo web-mail cheers up.

I almost forgot -- according to
