Who's 1.5? Who's 1.3 for that same question. Also, if FB loads but not TMO, either TMO is fiddly (it is sometimes) or you have a DNS issue, rather than a connectivity issue. Or gateway, or routing.

"I was able to connect from Windows by having the N900 terminal constantly ping my Windows box. I'm not sure what the root problem is exactly. "

How's the firewall? What are your connection settings? Do you do forwarding from router? What's your setup? And finally, if Windows doesn't do it, then it's not an N900 issue, it's a router issue.

My best guess is you let Windows on automatic and Linux on manual, and Windows has a bad config. Use ipconfig /all and compare settings. Seems like an iffy gateway or DNS setting. May be a lease problem, one IP is fixed and the other isn't, but the router keeps the lease, since it's the same MAC.

Either way. Use a 3G connection or a different (correctly configured) wifi before digging around OSs for issues. If it works fine in an open wifi or over GPRS/3G, you have a configuration issue with your network setup.
Thanks ndi. Your suspect on Router was right. I just did a reset and it started working,though not technically logical,but it does work now.
