Similar problem since 2.6.27 kernel was introduced in Intrepid. I can connect to some sites, like iGoogle and Yahoo (plus others when I can find them), but not others (like Ubuntu Forums). I can not do any updates either in terminal (cursor just sits there blinking with Waiting for Headers displayed) nor Synaptic. I did find a work around though. If I install Firestarter then internet surfing is back to normal once again (under 2.6.27 kernel). Strange, I know, but it works. My chipset is VIA VT6103L for my on-board Lan connection. I also run thru a Westell 6100 Nat combo modem. I've never had this problem in prior versions of Ubuntu. BTW, in Hardy I compiled a 2.6.27-rc5 kernel and had the same problem.
Glad I found someone else who's having the same problem. At least I know it's not just me.
