Re: [SLUG] odd behavior from new router

That is odd all right. You can "ping them, and traceroute them, and
name resolution works"? You don't have a proxy set up, right? There
must be rules on the router for filtering outbound connections then.
Seems kind of strange that that would be the case though, for a router
to come out of the box blocking http from inside.

If you can ping say, yahoo.com, from a box inside the network, then the
routing on the box inside the network is not an issue. That also
verifies that the ports on the router are in the correct order.
