FYI: Comcast blocks based on the MAC address of the port their modem connected to. If you add a router, clone the original MAC.

I have comcast and my iMac, Ubuntu 9.04 and XP machines never seem to have this problem. I flashed the device and reinstalled all the apps from backup and it connects now. But now canola fails to start.
I guess I will keep the device even if all I use it for is to SSH into work.
