Hi Dinesh and everyone. I visited the place again and the problem is with the Debian distro as it was re-loaded again the last time ( With no mirrors selected ). What happens is that the system has a problem with http connections. This is a serious bug with Etch and I will look it up in the bug reports. If it does not exist, I will report it.
Etch works without a problem in gui as well as console mode. Anyway, ui has nothing to do with networking. But using an adsl modem with a usb and ethernet connection simultaneously on two different comps with two different OSs is "innovative" ;-) and would require some testing. Ping an internet ip. note the time to first response. Ping the same with a name and note the time to first response. If the time is longer then your innovative setup is screwing DNS queries. Revert to a vanilla setup and test.
