Linux boxes have difficulty connecting through Actiontec modems. The problem is that the modem supplies its own IP address as one of the nameservers, and it is apparenly non-standard enough so this will not work with our boxen.
Solution: Set the linux box to a static IP in 192.168.0.x range, with a gateway of 192.168.0.1, and give it static dns info.
