>Environment:

Hardly relevant.  (Same behaviour observed for radically different environments.)

>Description:

HTTP requests to some sites hang forever.  I use the tunnel device and
ijppp.

>How-To-Repeat:

Several ways.  The simplest is to use telnet:
	telnet www.jp.freebsd.org 80

One never really seems to get connected.  (Most sites work OK of course, but
I occasionally stumple over problematic sites.  I have no idea what
signifies problematic sites.)

The same connection works great with the same hardware and FreeBSD
configuration when connected directly to the Internet.  Also, I am told that
it works when using pppd instead of ijppp.

>Fix:
	
None known.  (Workaround would be to use pppd.)
