Unhappy Connection Refused - site specific network problems Laptop running debian 2.6.0-test7


I am running Debian sid (unstable) GNU/Linux on my Dell Inspiron 4150, and have compiled the newest (2.6.0-test7) kernel with PCMCIA and Wireless built-in for the Trumobile 1150 Mini-PCI card (orinoco_cs). I am connecting successfully at all locations I have attempted, but in some locations, like my home, I cannot browse or check email. When I bring the interface (eth1) up and down it seems to work, and the DNS servers seem to resolve. I am able to PING sites on the internet and inside my local network, but things like apt-get fail with a Connection Refused (error 111).

The connection works perfectly at my work. Here is some config info:

# ifconfig

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:2D:7C:45:03
inet addr:192.168.1.100 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:4339 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:4600 errors:1 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:2801194 (2.6 MiB) TX bytes:884572 (863.8 KiB)
Interrupt:11 Base address:0x100

lo Link encap:Local Loopback

UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1

collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:118504 (115.7 KiB) TX bytes:118504 (115.7 KiB)

# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"AveQ_FOH" Nickname:"HERMES I"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462GHz Access Point: 00:06:25:53:87:69
Bit Rate:11Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm Sensitivity:1/3
Retry limit:4 RTS thr: off Fragment thr: off
Encryption key: off
Power Management: off
Link Quality:53/92 Signal level:-39 dBm Noise level:-92 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:1
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0

And the above info looks very similar when it DOES NOT work...I have been able to get my connection working at some wireless cafes, but tried it at a job site equipped with wireless and got the same results that I get at home (no http, but PING works).

I have tried PUMP and DHCP3 clients, with no change. Anyone got any ideas?

Confused,
Brady
