This unit has the ability to block outgoing connections (at least if its 
anything like my RP614).  I also discovered that my router locks solid if the 
traffic on the wan side gets to much (my broadband connection gets about a 
ping a second, but there are 7000 arp messages a minute).  Wonder if thats 
what yours is doing?

The solution was to power cycle the router.

Also, look at the changelog for the latest release of the software for this 
unit in www.netgear.com - fix 11 sounds a bit like your problem

Can you run tcpdump or ethereal on your machine to see what the traffic is 
between your machine and the router?

[PS will have to hand over to someone else on the list to pick up and run with 
this as I am away on business for a few days early tomorrow - and therefore 
need to get to bed soon]
