[Gllug] NTL wirelss

[Tushar Joshi]

Well it's only port 80 and it seems to be flaky to only some web sites and
only from wireless. So calling NTL shows them a working site, although a
telnet to the port 80 from another shell host seems to work fine. It could
simply be routing problems from the proxy to some parts of the internet.
But I can always seem to ping hosts fine, but http doesn't work. 

NTL support are very helpful although some things are difficult to
prove/fix.
