I can get an http connection to redhat.com, but I can't get a solid connection with google. Almost every website I try behaves exactly like google does. tcpdump is only a verbose explanation of what I've already said. It isn't iptables because I disabled the rules. I thought they might have been getting in the way too, but they're not. Is there anything that could have been to the network settings that could have cause something like this? thank you Jared
