  I didn't install any telnet services, I can't access anything online. 
Every time I attempt to load a web page I get www.whatever.com could not 
be found.

  I can't access cox's mailservers, no email. I switched one of the 
internal boxes so I have at least this way toget outside and get at my mail.

  FTP doesn't work either, I just plain can't get out. I even switched 
out eth0, no difference.

  Thanks.
