To test DNS:

  host google.com

To test TCP communication (assumes DNS is working):

  telnet google.com 80

To test TCP communication without assuming functional DNS:

  telnet 216.239.37.99 80

All tests assume a functional internet connection, via your router, a
NAT server, a cable modem, etc.

You can change all the paremeters at runtime using sysctl or the
/proc/ interface.
