I have 4 computers on my lan with a switch[hub] tied into an old 
computer with a Coyote firewall.  So we are somewhat similar. I am 
quite sure that Konq.  works in Breezy as it has for me in the past 
year on SuSE10. Mepis 33, pclinuxos,  Mandriva 2006 and Hoary.  

Your problem is just like a lot of mine, things that only happen to 
me.  I assume that Konq is ok as a file manager.  Have you had this 
problem with any other distro?  I don't have any hints to help you 
with config items.

Were you able to log onto your router, or get a response from it?  I 
can config my firewall with a browser,  and I have config'd DLink 
routers remotely also.

No other responses would indicate that your problem is rather unique 
to users here.

You could try Opera and see if it is problem free or perhaps try 
non-GUI browser like w3m to see if you can get on the net using it. I 
don't think it is Konq, but maybe a reinstall?     

Cheers
