I can assure you this isn't a Fedora Core 4 problem necessarily. It's definitely a network issue somewhere in the software probably, since it is affecting all apps. I'd definitely disable SELinux entirely. Then make sure iptables is off and won't be running at boot: /etc/init.d/iptables stop /sbin/chkconfig --level 35 iptables off What does traceroute reveal? If you /usr/sbin/traceroute www.google.com does it get all the way? What are your routes (/sbin/route -n)? Recently I heard from someone that had a problem with the wireless and wired interfaces being routed at the same priority, causing all kinds of odd packet loss issues. > 5. Ready to take a shot gun to FC4 :-( . I doubt that'd be effective. However trying out another distro (say Ubuntu) as a sanity check might be good. That way you can rule out some kind of hardware/network problem.
