I had a similar problem, i could almost anything, ping, ICQ, dns lookups. BUT i could not browse, fetch pop3 mail, i could browse an ftp but not fetch. At that time i was using pppoe (the debian one), it suddenly stoped working so i tried the one that my provider supplied me (it was enternet 300), my parcial solution that i don't know how it fixed it was downloading rp-pppoe, it just worked. Hope this helps
