[Nolug] Some pointers needed -- contd.

Just for testing purposes, I set up floppyfw in my linux box and suddenly my
speeds are back to normal. http://bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ resulted
2.6Mb speeds instead of 24.6Kbps as my normal linux setup did.

Therefore my normal linux setup have some issues, but I have no clue what's
wrong. It seems to be working normally with no error messages. Routing is
screwed definitely.
