Man that sure sounds like a firewall issue. Something is teling the card to 
drop all output packets. 

You can look and see if you have iptables or shorewall running by logging in 
as root thrrough a terminal and then do a chkcoonfig --list it will show you 
what is running. Look for iptables or shorewall and then use the chkconfig 
command to change that run level to off for that daemon. then shutdown that 
daemon by issueing the /etc/rc.d/init.d/(whateverdaemonis running)stop

You may end up doing a /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart

If you want you can paste the output from chkconfig --list for us to see what 
is running.

There is the internet connections command try as root 
/etc/rc.d/init.d/internet start
