Bug Description

Binary package hint: Ubuntu

I am unable to access some websites from Ubuntu Lucid. I am using Firefox and Chromium web browsers. And also tried windows version of Firefox with Wine, but still unable to access connect certain websites.

For example, www.123greetings.com,
this site does'nt even connect, and ping also failed. and the same website i can access from Windows partition.

And some other websites like wordpress.org, its connecting but cannot load the page fully. I had tried to access from Live CD, but failed to access these website.

And sometimes unable to connect certain links for file download,
For example, I cant download "Nero Linux" deb file from Nero website with firefox in Ubuntu, but I have to download that from Windows partition and then installed in Ubuntu.

I think this is not bug in Web Browser, bcos I tried different browsers and also Windows version Firefox in Wine., So I guess something in Ubuntu Lucid Itself is stopping from access some websites.

Not a Browser issue most likely if Epiphany (webkit) and Firefox (gecko) are affected.

Hi Mirza,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
