Opps! After reading the email below I noticed something in 'ifconfig'.

The wireless interface is 'wlan0' not 'wan0'.

I modified the wireless interface in /etc/shorewall/interface to
wlan0

started shorewall

I can connect eo the INTERNET with shorewall running

I_ have no Idea.  Based on the ifconfig file I think my interface 
should be wan0 (see attached file ' H - Shorewall Not Working -- wan0)

However I think that your net interface is 
wlan0 ???

That Is 

Interfaces file 

#ZONE    INTERFACE    BROADCAST    OPTIONS 
        net     wlan0            detect          dhcp,tcpflags 
#------ End of file no more stuff in here ??? 

Could this be it ??? 
Cheers

I don't know. The one thing we ask users to send us when they have
connection problems is the output of 'shorewall dump' collected as
described at http://www.shorewall.net/support.htm#Guidelines. That
output must be accompanied by a better problem description that 'I can't
connect to the internet'.

My point was, and still is, that unless you are running servers on the
Shorewall box, the macro-based rules that you are trying to add are
completely unnecessary in the first place.

I have no Idea.  That is why I provided a diagram of how my system is
connected.

Tom,

I am trying to install shorewall on my laptop. I am connecting to
the INTERNET via a usb modem that is plugged in to a wireless router.

See attached files.
